With this in mind, all modern automobiles have onboard diagnostic functions that can give a certain amount of diagnostics, but not prognostics. Diagnostics can be at several levels. One is at the vehicle level within the vehicle itself; this can inform the driver or basic level service personnel about what might have happened. The second level can be at somewhat deeper maintenance level when the vehicle can be dismantled at different subsystem levels in a repair shop, the problem pinpointed, and the item concerned replaced. The third level can be at the automotive dealer or eventually the vehicle manufacturer level to find out why a subsystem failed. Finally, the diagnostics can be at the subcomponent level or component manufacturer level when more microscopic analysis of the component can be initiated to find design or other flaws, if any.
