No. Your OnStar navigation directions expire with the OnStar trial period. Your built in Navi is there for life. Map updates required.

I agree that the App functionality should not be tied to an OnStar subscription that they’ve priced way to high

IMHO yes it's worth it. Especially in the mountains. I use both AA online and offline. Factory nav has saved my butt more than once.

Waze, Apple Maps, Google Maps, any of them work great with Car Play. I do love the Waze community interaction features. I only wish I had the Wireless Car Play, but it's not a huge thing.

2021 with wireless CarPlay rocks. Music, maps, messages, etc. all in one device, works great.

The nav system uses the HUD and dash screen so you never have to look away from the road.

Wireless CP/AA now could change things, so it boils down to if the HUD integration is important to you.

I have the factory nav and have never used it. Waze has never let me down and I have never lost signal and travel all over the SE United States.

I did recently get an offer from GM to upgrade my nav maps for around $100, Waze constantly upgrades it’s maps for free, so there is that to consider as well
