The customer concern may have been due to a lack of cellular service in a given area. A failure in the 
National Cellular Network infrastructure at the time of the customers failed connection that has since 
been repaired may also have been the cause.  

z

If an OnStar(R) Emergency call is able to successfully connect the vehicle to the OnStar(R) Call Center 
when an OnStar(R) Call Center button press is not, there may be a failure in the ability of the OnStar(R) 
system in the vehicle to be recognized by the local cellular carrier.  

z

If the prompt "OnStar(R) request ended" is heard without depressing the white "Dot" button at the end of 
the an OnStar(R) keypress, the OnStar(R) system at one time has made a successful cellular connection 
but was unable to complete the call. If repeated calls are placed with this result, contact the General 
Motors Technical Assistance Center.
