service network emplo yees, such as workshops
and manu facturers or third parties, such as break- down services. The same is true in
the case of
wa rranty claims and quality assurance measures.
In general, there adout is per form ed via the legally
prescribed port forth e diagnostics connection in
th eve hicle. The operational data that are read out
document tech nical states of theve hicle or of
individual components and assist in the diagnosis
of malfunctions, compliance with warranty obli ga-

data, in particular information about component
loads, tech nical events, malfunctions and other
fa ults may be transmitted along with theve hicle
identi/cation number tothe manufacturer. Fur-
th ermore, the manufacturer is subject toproduct
liability. Forth is reason the manufacturer also
uses operational data from theve hicle, forex am-
