Abstract: The invention relates to a method for geographically localizing triggers for malfunctions in a motor vehicle, wherein the malfunction of the motor vehicle is detected and an error entry describing the malfunction in an error memory of the motor vehicle is generated, and a geo-position (XY) of the motor vehicle is detected and stored by a localization device of the motor vehicle pp(1). Subsequently, during an error diagnosis of the motor vehicle, the error entry from the error memory of the motor vehicle is read out by an analysis device located outside the motor vehicle and a trigger class (14) describing a trigger of the malfunction is received for the error entry. The geo-position (XY) of the motor vehicle and the malfunction are stored in a corresponding digital map for the trigger class.

Abstract: A method for supporting a driver of a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, includes automatically detecting with a navigation device of the vehicle whether the vehicle has deviated from a defined driving route determined by the navigation device. When the vehicle has deviated from the defined driving route, it is determined with the navigation device whether an amount of propulsion energy stored in an energy storage device of the vehicle is sufficient to still reach at least one energy refilling station. When an energy refilling station can no longer be reached with the vehicle automatically a phone connection with a vehicle external help center is established with a phone device of the vehicle, prior to the vehicle becoming stranded, or it is automatically displayed to the driver with a display device of the vehicle prior to the vehicle becoming stranded, to establish a phone connection with a vehicle external help central.
