Abstract
A method for storing and retrieving vehicle information where raw vehicle data is stored on a database hosted by a vehicle. The raw vehicle data describes vehicle operations and status.

The vehicle receives the request and generates the desired information from the raw vehicle data. The vehicle returns the desired information to the requesting device via the remote server. A corresponding system is also disclosed and claimed herein.
