Vehicle Data Recording

This vehicle may be equipped with a
module that records data in certain
crash or near crash-like situations,
such as when an air bag deploys or
the vehicle hits a road obstacle.
This data could help provide a
better understanding of the
circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur. Some data may be
related to the vehicle dynamics and
safety systems operation. The data
may show:
How various systems in the
vehicle were operating.
Whether or not the driver and
passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened.
If and how far the driver was
pressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal.

Customer Information
How fast the vehicle was
traveling.
This data could provide an
understanding of the circumstances
in which crashes and injuries occur.
Data could be recorded by the
vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data are
recorded under normal driving
conditions and no personal data are
recorded. However, other parties,
such as law enforcement, could
combine recorded data with the type
of personally identifying data
routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read recorded data, special
equipment is required, and access
to the vehicle or the module is
needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties, such as
law enforcement, that have the
special equipment, can read the
information if they have access to
the vehicle or the module.
GM will not access this data or
share it with others except: with the
consent of the vehicle owner or,
