Chevy Offers Free OnStar Services for Winter Protection
Just in time for winter’s worst, Chevrolet is offering drivers up to three free months of OnStar protection.
“These services can help Chevy customers drive with confidence during some of the most dangerous times to be on the road,” said Paul Edwards, Chevrolet’s U.S. vice president of marketing. “With OnStar, we’re bringing peace of mind to owners, knowing that an advisor is ready to help.”
The enrollment period for Chevy’s offer ends Jan. 23. Drivers with an OnStar-equipped 2006 or newer Chevy vehicle are eligible — a total of about 19 million people.
