Auto Warranty News | General Motors Introducing Maintenance Remote

Device will initiate multiple tasks from a distance.

GM is soon to debut a high-tech version of the key fobs currently available that performs eeveral routine maintenance functions, including checking tire pressure. Tire pressure checks are frequently neglected by about half of the US car-owning population, according to the article. Improper pressure is a contributing cause of many car accidents.

General Motors soon will introduce a remote control that does a lot more than unlock doors and allow pickpockets to find the car that goes with the keys they’ve boosted.

The high-tech key fob will check tire pressures, fuel level and odometer readings from a distance, displaying the numbers on a digital screen. You’ll also be able to tune the radio from the safety and security of your own pocket, so you don’t have to suffer through two seconds of the wrong station when you start the car. The $150 option will show up first on Ostentation Class trucks like the Cadillac Escalade.
