Vehicle-related information can be sent at any time from the vehicle, for example, if you schedule a visit to a workshop and would like to assist your workshop by providing additional basic information. Sending vehicle information is not the same as scheduling service.

  1. Open the Vehicle Status app from App view in the center display.
  2. Tap Appointments.
  3. Tap Send vehicle data.
    • A message confirming that vehicle-related information has been sent will appear at the top of the center display. You can cancel data transmission by tapping the checkbox in the activity indicator.

      Information is sent via the vehicle's Internet connection1.

Vehicle information can be accessed by any retailer if they are provided with your vehicle identification number (VIN2).
