Today I am working appointments in the field and I lock my keys in the truck. I am about to be late for my next appt. I call Onstar to unlock my truck. The lady states that it may take ten minutes for the signal to go through. In ten minutes she calls back to let me know the attempt failed. She will try again. Ten minutes later no luck. She advises she will send Roadside Assistance. I ask her why it will not work. She states that the cell signal is not getting through, I may be in a bad area for cell coverage. I advise her that I am in Chicago, how can I have bad coverage. She said that sometimes the signal just bounces around and doesn't make it to the truck. Roadside Assistance calls and advises that it will cost $50 to $60 to unlock my truck. I told them to forget it. I unlocked my truck with a coat hanger. I will cancel my subscription to this worthless service.
