belt SATURN ION 2007 Manual PDF

vehicle speed, safety belt usage, airbag
readiness, airbag performance, and the
severity of a collision. This information has
been used to improve vehicle crash
performance and may be used to improve
crash performance of future vehicles and
driving safety. Unlike the data recorders on
many airplanes, these on-board systems do not
record sounds, such as conversation of
vehicle occupants.
To read this information, special equipment is
needed and access to the vehicle or the
device that stores the data is required. GM will
not access information about a crash event
or share it with others other than:
with the consent of the vehicle owner or, if
the vehicle is leased, with the consent of
the lessee,
in response to an official request of police
or similar government office,
as part of GM’s defense of litigation
through the discovery process, or
as required by law.In addition, once GM collects or receives data,
GM may:
use the data for GM research needs,
make it available for research where
appropriate condentiality is to be
maintained and need is shown, or
share summary data which is not tied to a
specic vehicle with non-GM organizations
for research purposes.
Others, such as law enforcement, may have
access to the special equipment that can read
the information if they have access to the
vehicle or the device that stores the data.
If your vehicle has OnStar
®, please check the
OnStar®subscription service agreement or
owner manual for information on its operations
and data collection.
