OEM Telematics Software for Fleet Management

No! That's the beauty of OEM telematics integration. Your vehicles already have sophisticated factory-installed sensors, GPS modules, and diagnostic systems built by the manufacturer. Oxmaint connects directly to your OEM's telematics platform through secure APIs, accessing the data that's already being collected by your vehicle's onboard systems. This means zero hardware installation, no device maintenance, no additional cellular data plans, and no concerns about aftermarket devices affecting vehicle warranties. Simply enable the telematics service with your vehicle manufacturer and connect it to Oxmaint.

OEM telematics provides comprehensive vehicle data including real-time GPS location and movement, odometer and engine hour readings, diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) with manufacturer descriptions, engine performance metrics (RPM, temperature, oil pressure), fuel level and consumption data, battery voltage and electrical system health, brake system status, tire pressure monitoring, emissions system data, driver behavior metrics, and maintenance indicator status. The specific data available varies by manufacturer, model year, and vehicle type. Heavy-duty trucks and construction equipment typically provide more detailed diagnostic information than light-duty vehicles.

Oxmaint's AI-powered predictive maintenance engine continuously analyzes patterns in your OEM telematics data to identify potential failures before they occur. The system monitors trends in engine performance, examines fault code patterns, tracks fluid condition indicators, analyzes operating environment stress factors, and compares vehicle performance against manufacturer specifications and your fleet baseline. When concerning trends are detected, you receive alerts with predicted failure timeframes, specific components at risk, recommended preventive actions, and estimated cost comparisons between proactive service and breakdown repair. This typically reduces unexpected breakdowns by 45% and extends vehicle lifespan by 25%.

No, OEM telematics integration actually helps protect and strengthen your warranty position. Because we're accessing data through the manufacturer's official platform with no physical modifications to your vehicles, there's zero impact on warranties. In fact, the detailed maintenance records and OEM-verified service history can help support warranty claims by providing irrefutable documentation of proper maintenance, exact operating conditions, and timely response to fault codes. Many fleet managers use OEM telematics data to prove warranty claims that might otherwise be disputed, especially for powertrain failures or component issues covered under manufacturer warranties.

Initial setup typically takes 3-5 business days from start to finish. The process involves: verifying your vehicles have active telematics subscriptions with the manufacturer (1 day), obtaining API credentials and access permissions from your OEM platform (1-2 days), configuring the integration and mapping your vehicles in Oxmaint (1 day), and testing data flow and validating all information (1 day). Some manufacturers require additional approval steps or have specific security requirements that may extend the timeline. Our implementation team handles all technical coordination with the OEM platform while you focus on business configuration like alert thresholds and maintenance rules.
