On Star Controls Your Car


Guest Travis

So you basically buy a car with tracking device installed and controlled by a 3rd party? So much for privacy. I suppose there's good and bad about this idea. The good being that you need desperate help when in an accident, but not much so when you're a carjacker who steals a car with OnStar equipped...lol

As Travis said, it only disables the throttle and the engine still runs, so it wouldnt have any effect on the ABS, Power Steering etc..That said, a throttle works by cable so i cant see how it would only disable the throttle!!

 

 

Agreed

 

some of the new expensive cars are digital throttles and not cable
