Your SOS warning is always displayed? It shouldn't be.

Mine said "Teleaid disabled" or something like that every time I started up the car, and it went away a few seconds later.

It was annoying so I disabled Teleaid using a STAR(DAS) system. I think it was in the instrument cluster where I set Teleaid to "not present" and it went away.

If yours is always displayed maybe it's telling you of an error?

Either way, I'm sure if you disable it with STAR(DAS) it will disable the entire Teleaid system and the error will go away. It doesn't use any other critical components of the car (it's pretty self contained with its own buttons, antennas, and even speakers are separate from the rest of the radio system)

So should probably not be an issue to disable. Find an indy shop with STAR and have them do it (unless you own a system yourself). I would guess no dealer will do it for you as it's a safety system.
