Sounds like a chance for Onstar to make more annoying commercials.

Har! For some reason, those spots annoy me so much I change stations or hit the CD button.

You are sooo right. If I locked my kid in my car, I dang sure wouldn't make a commercial out of it.

Onstar: "Hello, this is Onstar, how may I help you?"

Caller: "We're stuck in 14 inches of snow, and it's cold."

Onstar: "Yes sir, we show you on the STRETCH OF I-24 that HAS FORTY MILES OF CARS BACKED UP, do you want us to notify the police?"

Caller: "Yes, we didn't believe the weather report and now it's cold and we're scared."

Police Dispatcher: "Kentucky Hiway Patrol, state your emergency."

Onstar: "Hello, this is Melvin from Onstar, and we have Mr. ***** on the line. He states he's on the STRETCH OF I-24 that HAS FORTY MILES OF CARS BACKED UP, and requires assistance."

Police Dispatcher: "#&^)*)&^%#$*(*(&*^#$^&%#%$_)*&"

Onstar: "Thank you, we will notify the caller."

Onstar: "Mr. *****, we have notified the police and they said help is on the way."

Caller: "Oh, thank you Onstar, you're the greatest, and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year."

Onstar: "And thank you for calling Onstar."

Number ONE on my list of annoying commercials which are turned off at the first word. Hey, that's what a remote for your radio is all about.

They are annoying.
But I do appreciate them for two reasons:
1. Some of the people being helped make me feel much smarter.
2. The parodies that have appeared are pretty rich:
a)the commercial for a local radio station in which the "OneStar" rep tells the lady
that he can't unlock her car doors, but he can adjust the radio to the local station
so that she can get great talk radio for the next 2-3 hour before the locksmith arrives.
b)and the parodies on "All Comedy Radio" here in Los Angeles.
