Abstract
A system to manage the routine maintenance of a vehicle incorporated in a vehicle-share system is presented herein. The maintenance management system includes a vehicle having a vehicle sensor, vehicle communication platform (VCP), and remote entity. The VCP is located within the vehicle and communicates with the vehicle sensor. The VCP is configured to generate and communicate a data transmission. The remote entity has at least one database and is configured to receive the VCP data transmission. Moreover, the VCP collaborates with the vehicle sensor to generate at least one routine maintenance notice and subsequently transmits the routine maintenance notice to the remote entity. Upon review and analysis of the routine maintenance notice, the remote entity will predict future maintenance of the vehicle and modify the vehicle registration status in the database to allow for a maintenance event.
