Car owners might in the future be alerted by email or SMS when something is amiss with their vehicle and requires garage intervention, reports The Register.

"Research institutes from the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and the UK and car manufacturers Volkswagen and BMW are to participate in a new European consortium MyCarEvent (short for the snappy MobilitY and CollAboRative work in European Vehicle Emergency NeTworks), which is going to explore the idea of car maintenance alerts by email or SMS".
