It would be a waste disonnecting On Star if your car is equiped. They are only alerted if you have an event. The black box records what happens ALL THE TIME. It is located in the rear of the center console ( I think you can see it when you remove the vent/tray there.)
The only time I would worry about the box is if I did smoething wrong. then, you will need to quickly remove the box and trash it (it got smashed in the accident honest)
You can't disconnect it before then- the car won't run. So keep the on-star (it may help you when you or your family needs it) but after a night drinking when you wake up with damage to the car or hit and run, pull the sucker out of the car - or just don't do that and take your chances-they won't be impounding your car or filing a search warrant just to see if you were speeding the night before.
