Cars of today are becoming more and more sophisticated with the introduction of processors for controlling and monitoring various aspects, such as:

  • engine performance
  • tire pressure
  • automatic braking systems,
  • air-bag control,
  • suspension control,
  • cruising systems,
  • adaptive headlights.

Reactive Management

The focus of automotive manufacturers has been on making the journey a lot more comfortable and safer. Not much has been done about making the job of maintenance of cars more effective and timely. Most maintenance of cars today is mostly reactive and happens after something has failed and involves repairing or replacing the affected part.

Some of the maintenance is also blindly proactive in the sense that parts get replaced or oil gets changed after a certain fixed period. In most cases it is assumed that performance has degraded sufficiently to warrant replacement. Cars also get serviced on a routine schedule (say once every 5,000 miles) whether it is actually required or not. This type of maintenance can prove to be highly unproductive, wasteful and expensive.
