    my rates do seem high. I had a wreck a few years back but it was a dented door and fixed just fine. I work from home so I dont drive all that much, and the car is cheap. But it does have telemetry. I wonder if I should just bridge a resistor across the onstar antenna terminals

      Casually reading, you could put a 50ohm or larger resistor there.

      You will have a better result removing/disabling the module completely. There are several searchable tutorials based on the vehicle module.
