Abstract: A scent diffusing system for a vehicle includes a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is in fluid communication with a passenger compartment. A duct assembly extends between the HVAC system and the passenger compartment. The duct assembly includes a duct including a receiving extension defining a receiving cavity. The receiving extension defines locating tracks. A holder assembly is slidably received within the locating tracks. An interior of the holder assembly is in fluid communication with an interior of the duct via openings defined by the holder assembly. A scented pad is disposed within the interior of the holder assembly. A controller is configured to activate the HVAC system to direct air through the duct, through the interior of the holder assembly, and into the passenger compartment to diffuse a scent within the passenger compartment.

Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to receive a navigation route. The processor is further configured to identify a toll instance on the navigation route. The processor is additionally configured to display the toll instance with a preferred payment method on a display. Also, the processor is configured to detect when a vehicle travels past a point where a toll is due for the toll instance and wirelessly instruct payment of the toll using the preferred payment method.

Abstract: A method is provided for producing an assembled cross car beam. That method includes the steps of assembling component parts together to produce an assembled cross car beam, scanning and measuring, by a scanning device the assembled cross car beam and creating component locators in correct positions on the assembled cross car beam for the subsequent installation of component parts such as AHU and instrument panel components.
