HAD SMARTRIDE IN MY CAR FOR 4 WEEKS. HAVE 2015 LACROSSE WITH ONSTAR. RECEIVED EMAIL FROM ONSTAR THAT UNABLE TO RUN MONTHLY DIAGNOSTIC-SYSTEM FAILURE.

WHEN I WAS IN CAR THE NEXT DAY CALLED ONSTAR WHO AGAIN REPORTED SAME ISSUE. I TOLD THEM ABOUT THE SMARTRIDE DEVICE AND THEY TOLD ME TO IMMEDIATELY REMOVE IT. I DID SO, THEY DID SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC AND ORANGE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SHOWED ON SCREEN INFORMING ME TO HAVE CAR SERVICED WITHIN 7 DAYS!

I CALLED NATIONWIDE AND REPORTED INCIDENT AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE AWARE OF PROBLEM AND REPORTED TO THEIR VENDORS, BUT SORRY AND ESSENTIALLY TS.

THIS IS MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR ISSUE THE BLOCKING OF WARNINGS AS NO WAY TO KNOW UNTIL CAR BREAKS DOWN THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM.

NO ONE TOLD ME THIS POS DEVICE WOULD BLOCK WARNING SENSORS--THAT IT WAS VOLUNTARY AND IF I WANTED TO TAKE THE THING OUT, THEN DO IT.

HOW MANY UNSUSPECTING CAR OWNERS HAVE THIS PIECE OF *** IN THEIR CARS AND NOT KNOWING OF THIS MAJOR DEFECT TIL THE CAR BREAKS DOWN.

SHAME ON YOU NATIONWIDE!! WILL BE CHANGING COMPANIES AS SOON AS I CAN...

Reason of review: Damaged or defective.

Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution.

Location: Sugar Land, Texas

The same thing happened to my car. Nissan Sentra SR.

My car started malfunctioning after the smart ride use.

I have only had my car for two months. OmG.

I just went to nation wide as my cars insurance & they just sent me an email saying they was sending me 3 of them for my cars & truck...after reading all the bull *** these things do, I will NOT put these *** things in my cars & truck.Thank you for posting this & especially when you said that Nation Wide was aware of that issue...WTF ??? I can't afford a huge repair bill much less allow anybody to be able to track my every move, which by the way they do that anyway by your cell phone....I've read several complaints about these smart ride devices & I refuse to put them in...it's just another move for the government to keep track of us all...Angela Davis...
