Can OnStar unlock my car doors?

"I recently purchased a car with the OnStar system and signed up for membership.

If I lock myself out of my car, can OnStar unlock the door?"

“If you have power locks, OnStar may be able to unlock your door. However, you’ll need to pay for a plan and you car must be properly equipped with power locks.
The ability of OnStar to unlock the door varies with each vehicle, so you might want to call them at 1-800-4ONSTAR. Alternatively, you may be able to use their app to open your car doors.
If that doesn’t work, your
car insurance
may cover the cost of a locksmith.”
