mychevrolet app not updating/remote start not working
This app is terrible. Just started not updating vehicle information and cannot remote start my 2023 Tahoe any more. I receive the error message "Unable to remote start. Device disconnected. Turn on vehicle to reconnect". Had been working fine until recently. I can remote start with the key fob.

Multiple times. It appears the onstar isn't working. No signal light and nothing happens when I push any buttons, which leads me to believe its the issue with the onstar module that I've also been reading about. I have an appointment with the local dealer but I suspect that will be the cause. From everything I've read this is a known issue that GM should be taking more seriously, given that onstar is advertised as a safety feature and is now seeing failures at a regular pace. I have real concerns about having to pay close to $1k for a safety feature failure that likely is not under warranty any longer, not to mention that I'm losing months on my subscription that I've paid for.
