It's called OnStar (GPS), manditory installed on every '06 vehicle and later.
Yes, and quite discomforting if you think of the other uses beyond those shown on the commercials.

Think of the potential to misuse any of these "features" by law enforcement or an individual (or group) if they can unlock your car remotely, start your car remotely, know your location, etc...

While the commercials show the uses as benign or life saving, the other side of the coin is very, very, dark.
