Privacy

Your vehicle, like other modern
motor vehicles, has a number of
sophisticated computer systems that
monitor and control several aspects
of the vehicle performance. Your
vehicle uses onboard vehicle
computers to monitor emission
control components to optimize fuel
economy and to provide anti-lock
braking and to help the driver
control the vehicle in difficult driving
situations. These computers and
your vehicle's Data Recording
Module (DRM) also store
information about the performance
and status of certain systems in
your vehicle including the engine,
throttle, and braking systems.
General Motors and its affiliates, as
well as service and repair facilities
may access or download and share
this information via a direct
connection to your vehicle in order
to diagnose and repair problems
and properly service the vehicle.
GM and its affiliates may also
download and retrieve stored
information from your vehicle for
motor vehicle research and
development, safety and vehicle
improvement purposes.
