Options on '09 Vibe GT

Post by Ace Barker »

Is there a Homelink option on the Vibe? My Avalanche has it. My Sky Redline doesn't and neither does the Vibe GT.Also on the Onstar. I called Onstar and the Vibe doesn't support the monthly email on diagnostics as most GM cars. Does anyone know if they are going to to an upgrade on the Vibe to allow the monthly diagnostic email. Its kind of nice with the daughter away at college.It's a great car. I have been very impressed by this car.Ace...

I don't believe there is a homelink option in the Vibe. I was told the reason the Vibe doesn't support monthly updates is because it does not have the required equipment on the vehicle. Perhaps they don't want to give Toyota access to the technology, or they didn't want to spend the $ to make it available, I'm not sure.

My salesman told me that too, and the Onstar rep confirmed it as well when I was initiating the service.... after a month or so of owning the car I got an e-mail from Onstar saying that my car does not have the necessary equipment to support the monthly diagnostic update.
