Abstract
A system may determine, based on vehicle data received from vehicle sensors, a maintenance indication indicative of vehicle maintenance required according to a vehicle maintenance schedule, identify a maintenance time indication for which a maintenance procedure unrelated to the vehicle maintenance schedule should be performed, and generate a maintenance recommendation to provide in a vehicle human-machine interface offering to perform the vehicle maintenance and the unrelated maintenance procedure. The system may also identify, based on driver maintenance preferences, a weather-specific maintenance procedure unrelated to a vehicle maintenance schedule, identify a maintenance time indication according to properties of weather appropriate for the weather-specific maintenance procedure and weather forecast data queried from a weather service, and present a maintenance recommendation offering to perform required vehicle maintenance and the weather-specific maintenance procedure at a time indicated by the maintenance time indication.
