A story of OnStar helping when a cell phone couldn't

Got this from a inter-office newsline thing and it involves a Saab...
ONSTAR TO THE RESCUE . . . [Part of an ongoing series highlighting the benefits of OnStar.] Three teenagers from Augusta, Maine, were driving their mom’s 2001 Saab 9-5 when the vehicle skidded off the road, hit several trees and a telephone pole. The air bags deployed and OnStar was immediately notified, but there was no reply when an OnStar advisor called into the vehicle. The advisor contacted emergency services, which dispatched an ambulance to the scene. Emergency crews called a helicopter to transport the teenagers to the nearest hospital. Though all three teenagers were injured, the air bags -- along with the quick response of OnStar and the care provided by emergency crews -- helped minimize the severity of the injuries.
