On the recent events which dreadfully happened in Japan because of the killer quake and tsunami, General Motors announced that people living on affected areas can push the OnStar button to be connected to Crisis Advisor, a feature which gets them help from the proper authorities to get them to safety as soon as possible.
OnStar customers can contact such as emergency services, provide points of contact for assistance like food, shelter, or hotel accommodations. If they have no power, they can access the Internet or charge phones or stay in contact. They can also get weather and other updates. Federal emergency management agencies can also be contacted for assistance.
