Abstract
The present disclosure relates to user settings on a vehicle. More particularly, this disclosure describes a driver profile reset system and methods thereof to remove those user settings. In an illustrative embodiment, a driver may be presented with a pin pad on a head unit display. The user may enter their pin thereon. The system may authenticate it to enable user settings on the vehicle. Thereafter, the user settings may be removed or wiped from the system to prevent access to such information. The setting, for example, may be removed after the driver unbuckles their seatbelt and opens their door.
