Abstract: A misfire detection system and method for a vehicle utilize a controller to obtain a crankshaft speed signal indicative of a rotational speed of an engine crankshaft connected to a device that mitigates vibrational disturbances at the crankshaft caused by misfires of the engine, detect that a first firing event of the engine is a first misfire based on the crankshaft speed signal, monitor a vibrational response of the crankshaft, detect that a consecutive second firing event of the engine is a second misfire based on a first modified crankshaft speed signal and the first set of thresholds, and in response to detecting the second misfire, reset the monitoring of the vibrational response of the crankshaft including modifying the amplitude of the crankshaft speed signal to obtain a second modified crankshaft speed signal and comparing the second modified crankshaft speed signal to a set of thresholds.

Abstract: Computer-implemented techniques include determining, at a controller of a vehicle, a wheel speed for each of two front wheels of the vehicle and two rear wheels of the vehicle. The techniques include calculating, at the controller, a difference between (i) an average of the wheel speeds for the two front wheels of the vehicle and (ii) an average of the wheel speeds for the two rear wheels of the vehicle to obtain an error. The techniques include setting, at the controller, a rough road detection bit when the error is greater than or equal to a threshold indicative of an error corresponding to rough road. The techniques include monitoring, at the controller, the rough road detection bit for a period to obtain a hysteresis band. The techniques also include determining, at the controller, whether the vehicle is traveling on rough road based on the hysteresis band.
