Peace of Mind

My Saturn Vue is OnStar equipped, and I pay the $200 plus a year for the basic service. It gives me monthly updates about the functioning of the systems in my car, oil life history, and I know if I ever have an emergency I can push a button and talk to someone. I have only used it a few times, but what a relief, when I need it. 

Recently, the tire pressure gauge indicator light mal-functioned.  It indicated low tire pressure, and when I went to have the tires check, they were actually over-inflated.   OnStar told me the tire pressure gauge of the front passenger side tire was malfunctioning. I decided I wanted to spend the money to get it repaired.  One time, I got into my car in the morning, and the tire pressure indicator light was on. I went down the street to get air in the tire, without realizing the tire was almost totally deflated If the indicator light had not been on, I would not have realized the problem. 

I am willing to pay for peace of mind.
