	A significant consumer protection concern has been raised regarding the functionality of the red SOS button in vehicles without an active OnStar subscription. When a non-subscriber presses the button, the system does not connect to an emergency adviser or directly to 911. Instead, it often plays a message stating that the system is not active and may connect the user to a sales adviser to purchase a subscription plan.<nowiki><ref>Auto-Vlog. (2024, January 29).
