Abstract: Presented are vehicle control systems and logic for provisioning remote vehicle services (RVS), methods for making/using such systems, and wireless-enabled vehicles executing RVS operations governed by such systems. A method of controlling an RVS operation of a vehicle includes a vehicle controller receiving, either directly or indirectly, a request to activate the RVS operation. Responsive to receiving the RVS activation request, wireless signal data is collected to determine wireless signal states of the subject vehicle and of multiple crowd-sourced vehicles proximal to the subject vehicle. Using the host vehicle's and crowd-sourced vehicles' wireless signal states, a signal state heatmap is generated with a spatial mapping of signal state magnitudes as a map overlay. The heatmap visualizes a signal state magnitude in an area surrounding the host vehicle. If this signal state magnitude exceeds a preset minimum threshold, the vehicle controller commands a resident vehicle subsystem to activate the RVS operation.

Abstract: Herein, a technology is discussed that facilitates the reduction of vehicle-related crime by disabling the use of a vehicle's engine when the vehicle is parked in a high-risk crime zone. The technology includes a method that sends a parked location of the vehicle to a data center and receives, from the data center, an indication to enable remote ignition block (RIB) of the vehicle when the parked location is part of a high-risk crime zone. In response, the vehicle enables RIB so that its engine will not start.

Abstract: A method for controlling a telecommunications system of a vehicle, the system including a mobile telecommunications module embedded in the vehicle, includes determining whether the embedded mobile telecommunications module is better able to communicate with a mobile telecommunications network than is a portable mobile telecommunications device located in the vehicle, using one or more criteria. If the embedded mobile telecommunications module is better able to communicate with a mobile telecommunications network than is the portable mobile telecommunications device based on the one or more criteria, a new call is placed with a mobile telecommunications network from the embedded mobile telecommunications module.
