and manufacturers or third parties, such as
breakdown services. The same is true in the
case of warranty claims and quality assurance
measures.
In general, there adout is per form ed via the
legally prescribed port forth e diagnostics con‐

are read out document tech nical states of the ve
hicle or of individual components and assist in
th e diagnosis of malfunctions, compliance with
wa rranty obligations and quality impr ovement.
To that end, these data, in particular information
about component loads, tech nical events, mal‐
functions and other faults may be transmitted
along with theve hicle identification number to
th e manufacturer. Furthermore, the manufac‐
turer is subject toproduct liability. Forth is rea‐
