246 Customer information

Operating data in the vehicle

Control units process data for

operation of the vehicle.

This data includes, for example:

● vehicle status information (e.g.

speed, movement delay, lateral

acceleration, wheel rotation rate,

"seat belts fastened" display)

● ambient conditions (e.g.

temperature, rain sensor,

distance sensor)

As a rule such data is transient and is

not stored for longer than an

operational cycle, and only processed

on board the vehicle itself. Often

control units include data storage

(including the vehicle key). This is

used to allow information to be

documented temporarily or

permanently on vehicle condition,

component stress, maintenance

requirements and technical events

and errors.

Depending on technical equipment

levels, the data stored is as follows:

● system component operating

states (e.g. fill level, tyre

pressure, battery status)

● faults and defects in important

system components (e.g. lights,

brakes)

● system reactions in special

driving situations (e.g. triggering

of an airbag, actuation of the

stability control systems)

● information on events damaging

the vehicle

● for electric vehicles the amount of

charge in the high-voltage

battery, estimated range

In special cases (e.g. if the vehicle

has detected a malfunction), it may be

necessary to save data that would

otherwise just be volatile.

When you use services (e.g. repairs,

maintenance), the operating data

saved can be read together with the

vehicle identification number and

used where necessary. Staff working

for the service network (e.g. garages,

manufacturers) or third parties (e.g.

breakdown services) can read the

data from the vehicle. The same

applies to warranty work and quality

assurance measures.

Data is generally read via the OBD

(On-Board Diagnostics) port

prescribed by law in the vehicle. The

operating data read documents the

technical condition of the vehicle or

individual components and assists

with fault diagnosis, compliance with

warranty obligations and quality

improvement. This data, in particular

information on component stress,

technical events, operator errors and

other faults, is transmitted to the

manufacturer where appropriate,

together with the vehicle identification

number. The manufacturer is also

subject to product liability. The

manufacturer potentially also uses

operating data from vehicles for

product recalls. This data can also be

used to check customer warranty and

guarantee claims.

Fault memories in the vehicle can be

reset by a service company when

carrying out servicing or repairs or at

your request.
