GM and OnStar recently announced the use of Stolen Vehicle Slowdown (SVS) to help safely recover a 2009 Chevrolet Tahoe that was carjacked at gunpoint in Visalia, California. This marks the first time the technology has been activated to help in a carjacking situation. SVS helps take high speed pursuits out of the equation, and reduces the chance that a stolen vehicle will be crashed during a chase. Once a subscriber has reported a stolen vehicle they can call and request the service. The advisor will then use advanced GPS technology to pinpoint the of the vehicle and notify law enforcement. When police have the vehicle in sight, they can request the advisor send a signal that interacts with the vehicle's engine, gradually slowing it down, aiding in a safe recovery.
