Live traffic not working….

At my one year anniversary of Onstar I received a message that my 2024 Escalade’s Premium package needed to be renewed.  I notified Onstar of the issue and they assured me that they would correct my account and that my Premium subscription was good for three years expiring in 10/27.   The problem is that my Navigation has not shown “live traffic” or “alternate routes” since my renewal notification from Onstar.

Do I need an additional subscription from Onstar to maintain live traffic with my navigation or is my Premium subscription enough?

    Same.  Purchased 2024 Tahoe Premium.  Just hit my year mark and said I needed to renew my subscription to use my features.  I was told it was good for the next several years.  Yet I've tried to reset the infomate, reset the cache as instructed and still does not work correctly.

      Keep me posted.  I had mine back to the dealer, they tried a radio update but still no live traffic available.  I will contact OnStar support next week when I have a day off.  
      There is a lot of discussion of this same situation on Reddit but so far no resolutions have been listed.
