If the prompt OnStar Request Ended is heard without pressing the white dot button at the
end of an OnStar® keypress, the OnStar® system at one time made a successful cellular
connection, but was unable to complete the call. If repeated calls are placed with this result,
contact the General Motors Technical Assistance Center.
An inaccurate or aged GPS position may have been due to the temporary loss of GPS signal
reception by the vehicle in instances, such as driving through tunnels or parking structures
which restrict the navigation antenna from a clear view of the satellites in the sky.
