Abstract: A computer includes a processor and a memory, the memory storing instructions executable by the processor to receive a first message from a vehicle specifying an event in the vehicle; identify vehicle data to confirm or disprove the event in the vehicle; identify an application programming interface (API) in the vehicle to access at least some of the vehicle data; and transmit to the vehicle a second message including a query for the vehicle data according to the API.

Abstract: Data elements are identified, from a diagnostic request received from a remote server, to collect from controllers of the vehicle. The data elements are captured for inclusion in a diagnostic data message, responsive to receipt of the diagnostic request to allow the data elements to be collected without approval of the diagnostic request. The data elements are stored to the data storage. The remote server is queried for an approval status of the diagnostic request. Responsive to the approval status specifying that the diagnostic request is approved, the diagnostic data message is sent to the server. Responsive to the approval status failing to specify within a predefined time period that the diagnostic request is approved, the data elements are discarded from the data storage to maintain data privacy for the diagnostic request upon condition that the diagnostic request is not approved.

Abstract: A system includes a test environment and a processor. The processor is programmed to perform, on the test environment, a diagnostic request specifying a plurality of elements of information, responsive to receipt of a successful result of the diagnostic request from the test environment within a predefined timeout period, approve the diagnostic request for execution by fleet vehicles, and otherwise, retest the diagnostic request as a plurality of requests.

Abstract: A system includes a memory storing diagnostic data and survey requirements indicating a survey question and vehicles to receive the survey question. A processor is programmed to identify vehicles that match the survey requirements, send a survey question for the identified vehicles to be answered by vehicle occupants, receive answer to the question from the vehicles, and annotate the diagnostic data with to the answer.

Abstract: A processor of a vehicle is programmed to send a message to a mobile device connected to the processor to request an application permissions update for the vehicle from a remote server, responsive to the vehicle lacking application permissions for a vehicle-enabled mobile application executed by a mobile device. The processor is further programmed to receive, from the server, the application permissions update including both the application permissions and a diagnostic request to receive data from the vehicle.

Abstract: From diagnostic configurations, individual data elements and a frequency for collection of each data element including removing redundant collection of data elements are identified. Diagnostic data from the vehicle in accordance with the identification are periodically collected. The diagnostic data is sent to the server with instructions that specify each data element in the diagnostic data and for which configurations each data element in the diagnostic data is required.

Abstract: A system includes a test environment and a processor. The processor is programmed to perform, on the test environment, a diagnostic request specifying a plurality of elements of information, responsive to receipt of a successful result of the diagnostic request from the test environment within a predefined timeout period, approve the diagnostic request for execution by fleet vehicles, and otherwise, retest the diagnostic request as a plurality of requests.

Abstract: A storage maintains energy estimates corresponding to function requests for vehicles. A processor of a server is programmed to receive a function request for a vehicle, and direct the vehicle to perform the function request responsive to determining, according to battery information received from the vehicle and an energy estimate corresponding to the function request, that the vehicle has sufficient energy to perform the function request.

Abstract: A vehicle includes an embedded modem that includes with a cellular transceiver and a wireless network transceiver. The embedded modem is configured to communicate with a cellular network to provide internet access. The embedded modem is further configured to establish a private wireless network and authenticate devices connecting to a private wireless network to allow access to the cellular network. The embedded modem is further configured to establish a public wireless network in which data traffic is routed to a remote server over the cellular network for authentication and processing.

Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to receive rental return information. The system is also configured to verify deposit of a key fob. Further, the system is configured to connect to a device containing vehicle usage information relating to a rental period. The system is additionally configured to gather vehicle usage information from the connected device. The system is also configured to verify a vehicle presence in a rental parking lot and terminate a vehicle rental.

Abstract: A system includes a processor configured to receive a request for temporary vehicle usage. The processor is also configured to associate a requesting user with an available vehicle and generate a temporary vehicle access code and start code, usable during a predetermined time period. The processor is further configured to send the access code and start code to both the user and the vehicle.

Abstract: A system includes a processor in communication with a vehicle computing system (VCS) and a remote target. The processor is configured to receive an alarm message from the VCS, including GPS coordinates. The processor is further configured to interpret the alarm message to retrieve at least the GPS coordinates. The processor is also configured to perform reverse geocoding on the GPS coordinates to associate an address with the GPS coordinates. Also, the processor is configured to package the address in a new alarm message.
