Patent ID: 11528622

Abstract:
A vehicle includes a vehicle-mounted communication unit capable of wirelessly communicating telematics information to and from an external server, a monitoring unit that monitors whether an abnormality has occurred in the vehicle-mounted communication unit because of a security incident, and a control unit that controls a vehicle-mounted device. When detecting occurrence of an abnormality in the vehicle-mounted communication unit, the monitoring unit disconnects communication between the vehicle-mounted communication unit and the monitoring unit and notifies the control unit of the abnormality. The control unit can wirelessly communicate with a mobile communication terminal in accordance with a certain profile of a short-range wireless communication standard for a function of the vehicle-mounted device. The control unit instructs, when being notified of the abnormality, the mobile communication terminal to perform an operation in accordance with the certain profile so as to report the abnormality to the external server via the mobile communication terminal.
