Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for initiating first instructions to establish a communication session between a user device and a vehicle, wherein the first instructions include a wait time interval and the communication session is associated with a short-range wireless communication protocol. The system and methods may determine a number of unsuccessful attempts for establishing the communication session exceeds a threshold value, and in response to determining that the number exceeds the threshold value, generate second instructions to establish the communication session, wherein the second instructions include a modification to the wait time interval. The second instructions may be initiated to establish the communication session between the user device and the vehicle.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing communications between a vehicle and a user device. A user device may be determined to be authorized to communicate with a vehicle. A signal strength of a signal transmitted between the vehicle and the user device is determined, and a determination is made whether the signal strength exceeds a threshold signal strength. In response to determining that the signal strength exceeds the threshold signal strength, a communication command is enabled to be transmitted from the user device to the vehicle.
