US Patent 10940832 Identifying suspicious events relating to a vehicle

A system for monitoring suspicious activity of a vehicle includes a memory designed to store pattern data corresponding to a historical pattern of behavior of the vehicle. The system further includes a sensor designed to detect sensor data corresponding to a current vehicle behavior. The system further includes a network access device designed to communicate with a remote device. The system further includes an electronic control unit (ECU) coupled to the memory, the sensor, and the network access device. The ECU is designed to determine a suspicious event when the current vehicle behavior deviates from the historical pattern of behavior of the vehicle by a threshold amount. The ECU is further designed to control the network access device to transmit a notification of the suspicious event to the remote device.
