White needle voice command not working

[D2R]

I have noticed my vehicle's voice command is not working.
Tried to press the button on the steering wheel and use it to get to POI, the system just tells me that is not available at the moment.
Does our vehicle require a paid subscription for that feature to work? 🤔

I have active subscriptions for hot spot and whatever the plan is for live traffic but I noticed same thing after putting updated map card in so I think it could be a side effect of updated SD card maps. If you still have the original SD card or earlier one where voice command worked you could swap it out and see if it changes the situation.

GM just made it easier to give up on them and use AA/CP with this! 🤣

It is supposed to work, even without Onstar subscription. Besides occasional navigation, I ask it to tune to a particular FM radio frequency. But for most navigation, phone-based navigation is the way to go.
