[QUOTE="upssup, post: 767368, member: 21185"] And now for a small dose of reality. Telematics was primarily implemented to monitor critical systems on the car. NOT THE DRIVER! It was designed to aid in effective troubleshooting and repair of UPS vehicles. I work in a hub that has it and I am an Automotive Supervisor. I see the telematics report almost daily, it shows us vital information such as fluid temps, engine status and systems status of many different components. It has been effective so far. Yes there has been some faulty sensors and readings, mostly due to the system as a whole and not specific components. Yes there have been faulty switches but it is easy to identify component or operator (i.e. seatbelt switches). Yes if you are doing your job you should not have anything to worry about. True for my mechanics as well as drivers. yes the newer cars (2006 and newer) have the majority of components but they still need to have the "paddle" or module installed and activated. I have never heard the one about the grab rail switch. I am sure you will hear about sensors in whatever system is currently your center's biggest area of concern. Again 95% of the systems monitored have absolutely nothing to do with the driver and everything to do with the car! [/QUOTE]
