Systems and methods for enhanced vehicle valet mode

A vehicle comprising:

• a processor operable to execute a set of computer-executable instructions;
• and
• memory operable to store the set of computer-executable instructions operable to:
• receive, at a first time, a first request for a first temporary valet passcode;
• determine that (1) an owner passcode is stored in memory of the vehicle and a passive entry passive start (PEPS) device is present inside the vehicle or (2) the owner passcode is not stored in the memory of the vehicle, wherein the owner passcode is a pre-established passcode;
• initiate a simple valet mode of the vehicle based on the determination that the owner passcode is stored in the memory and the PEPS device is present inside the vehicle or the determination that the owner passcode is not stored in the memory of the vehicle;
• receiving, by the vehicle and at a second time, a second request for the first temporary valet passcode;
• determine that the owner passcode is stored in the memory of the vehicle and the PEPS device is not present inside the vehicle;
• initiate, based on the determination that the owner passcode is stored in the memory of the vehicle and the PEPS device is not present inside the vehicle, an enhanced valet mode instead of the simple valet mode;
• present, based on initiating the enhanced valet mode, a request for the owner passcode;
• receive an entry of an input passcode;
• determine that the input passcode matches the owner passcode;
• and
• generate, by the vehicle and through the enhanced valet mode, the first temporary valet passcode and a second temporary valet passcode that are different than the owner passcode based on the determination that the input passcode matches the owner passcode.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions, that when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations of:

• receiving, by a vehicle and at a first time, a first request for a first temporary valet passcode;
• determining that (1) an owner passcode is stored in memory of the vehicle and a passive entry passive start (PEPS) device is present inside the vehicle or (2) the owner passcode is not stored in the memory of the vehicle, wherein the owner passcode is a pre-established passcode;
• initiating a simple valet mode of the vehicle based on the determination that the owner passcode is stored in the memory and the PEPS device is present inside the vehicle or the determination that the owner passcode is not stored in the memory of the vehicle;
• receiving, by the vehicle and at a second time, a second request for the first temporary valet passcode;
• determine that the owner passcode is stored in the memory of the vehicle and the PEPS device is not present inside the vehicle;
• initiating, based on the determination that the owner passcode is stored in the memory of the vehicle and the PEPS device is not present inside the vehicle, an enhanced valet mode instead of the simple valet mode;
• presenting, based on initiating the enhanced valet mode, a request for the owner passcode, wherein the owner passcode is a pre-established passcode;
• receiving an entry of an input passcode;
• determining that the input passcode matches the owner passcode;
• and
• generating, by the vehicle and through the enhanced valet mode, the first temporary valet passcode and a second temporary valet passcode that are different than the owner passcode based on the determination that the input passcode matches the owner passcode.
