Maintenance is central to vehicles, similar to the way vehicles are central to our modern-day lifestyles. But when vehicles experience performance issues, that might cause them to be off the road, it can be highly frustrating and incur significant losses in terms of time and money. It is estimated that US consumers on average spend nearly $2000 on vehicle maintenance and repairs each year, as well as hours in downtime.
Data powered solutions aim at easing such inconveniences for the end consumer, through remote diagnostics and over-the-air updates, that have been proven to show measurable results. Connected vehicle data offers a deeper look into corrective insights that help identify potential issues in advance to ensure maximum uptime. Traditional on-demand maintenance services instead result to be expensive, time-consuming and often recurring.
Salvaging Vehicle Uptime With Over The Air Updates
Modern vehicles of all sorts today consist of software applications to an extent where regular updates not only keep those applications working, but are essential for seamless operations. This need to handle constant updates, in a secure way, gave rise to ‘over-the-air’ updates, predominantly focused at prolonging the life of the applications, and the car. With the rise in the number of connected vehicles on our roads, OTA updates no longer remain a value-added activity, instead mark product success.
For maintenance service providers, OTA updates hold great importance as often the difference in user experience comes down to how quickly updates can be made. OTA updates, made possible through connected vehicle data, support with fixing issues, adding new features, conducting updates, all while ensuring the security of the data.
Comprehensive Remote Diagnostics
Data-powered remote diagnostics solutions differentiate maintenance service providers as serious players in the game. By getting access to vehicle’s telemetry, health and other data attributes, solutions providers can:
Monitor Vehicle Health
With real-time data into tire pressure, fuel level, battery status and engine oil temperature, service providers could reverse the chain of events and reach out to customers, proactively. Closely evaluated customer vehicles experience more convenient trips and increased uptime.
Get Deeper Insights
When maintenance service providers get access to live updates, vehicle health data and malfunction indicators, they develop the ability to cater to potential issues and breakdown events, in advance. Such efforts could put a stop on time-consuming and costly repairs.
Decode Error Codes
Vehicle data, as opposed to data sourced through OBD devices, gives better visibility into the diagnostic codes activated by the vehicle as well as in determining the true cause. This data could also enable service providers to provide assistance over the call for quick resolutions.
Send Alert Issues
Maintenance and warranty service providers also get access to automatic and intuitive alerts from the vehicle, denoting potential problems, for which appropriate actions could be taken.
