Vehicle Data Recording
and Privacy
Your Saturn vehicle has a number of sophisticated
computers that record information about the
vehicle’s performance and how it is driven. For
example, your vehicle uses computer modules
to monitor and control engine and transmission
performance, to monitor the conditions for
airbag deployment and deploy airbags in a crash
and, if so equipped, to provide anti-lock braking
to help the driver control the vehicle. These
modules may store data to help your dealer/retailer
technician service your vehicle. Some modules
may also store data about how you operate
the vehicle, such as rate of fuel consumption
or average speed. These modules may also retain
the owner’s personal preferences, such as radio
pre-sets, seat positions, and temperature settings.
Event Data Recorders
This vehicle has an Event Data Recorder (EDR).
The main purpose of an EDR is to record, in
certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as
an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle,
data that will assist in understanding how a
vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR is designed
to record data related to vehicle dynamics and
safety systems for a short period of time, typically
30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is
designed to record such data as:
How various systems in your vehicle were
operating
Whether or not the driver and passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened
How far, if at all, the driver was depressing
the accelerator and/or brake pedal
How fast the vehicle was traveling

Navigation System
If your vehicle has anavigation system,
use of the system may result in the storage
ofdestinations, addresses, telephone
numbers, and other trip information.
Please refer to the navigation system operating
manual for information on stored data and
for deletion instructions.
Radio Frequency
Identication (RFID)
RFIDtechnology is used in some vehicles for
functions such as tire pressure monitoring and
ignition system security, as well as in connection
with conveniences such as key fobs for remote door
locking/unlocking and starting, and in-vehicle
transmitters for garage door openers. RFID
technology in Saturn vehicles does not use or
record personal information or link with any other
Saturn system containing personal information.
