Abstract
Techniques for certifying unbonded access to a vehicle are disclosed herein. An example method includes receiving, by a vehicle and from a computing system, a service identifier associated with a function of the vehicle, wherein the vehicle stores one or more device identifiers for each digital key device in communication with the vehicle, receiving, from a digital key device, a signed token associated with the service identifier, wherein the one or more device identifiers do not include a device identifier for the digital key device, sending, to the computing system, the signed token, receiving, from the computing system, an indication of whether the signed token is verified, responsive to determining, based on the indication, that the signed token is verified, authorizing use of the function of the vehicle, and storing the device identifier for the digital key device.
