Besides the standard telematic features like
emergency crash notification, hands -
free calling, and roadside assistance made popular by services like GM's OnStar and Ford's SYNC, the Hughes technology equipped on the Jeep show car at the Consumer Electronics Show included recall notification, red light camera alerts, remote emissions reporting, vehicle tracking, and real - time traffic.
It comprises three years of Safety Connect (
emergency crash notification, motorist
emergency notification by pushing a button, breakdown assist) and Service Connect (reaching out to the dealer to set up service; recall alerts); six months of Remote Connect (remote lock / unlock, engine start / stop, find park vehicle); and six months or 2 GB of
free data download which you'll use long before the six months are up.
It differs from OnStar in three ways: It's
free not $ 15 - $ 30 a month, you have to bring along and pair your own Bluetooth phone (it makes the
emergency call), and you have to keep the phone someplace where it's going to survive the
crash (probably not lying on the center console cupholder).
