Responses to detected impairments

A computing system comprising:

• one or more processors and one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to one or more of the processors, the one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media comprising instructions operable when executed by one or more of the processors to cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:
• receiving an indication of an impaired sensor component from a first autonomous vehicle;
• identifying a sensor type of the impaired sensor component;
• determining a suitable service center for servicing the sensor type based on one or more criteria;
• identifying a second autonomous vehicle, wherein the second autonomous vehicle has a functional sensor component of the sensor type;
• sending instructions to the second autonomous vehicle to drive to a location of the first autonomous vehicle;
• sending instructions to the first autonomous vehicle to drive to the service center location using sensor data of the second autonomous vehicle;
• and
• sending instructions to the second autonomous vehicle to drive to the service center location with the first autonomous vehicle.
