01Vehicle diagnosis and repair guidance
Describe symptoms in plain language and review likely causes, safety guidance, recommended actions, and supporting cost notes when benchmark data exists.
Uganda pilot
Understand the problem. Find the next step.
Describe a vehicle issue, review automated repair guidance, post a repair request, and connect with mechanics or parts sellers from one mobile-first platform.
Diagnostic guidance is informational and should be confirmed by a qualified technician before repairs or continued driving.
Available in the pilot
A focused set of tools for understanding vehicle problems and coordinating the next step.
02Repair requests and mechanic bids
Drivers and sellers can post repair needs. Mechanics can review the vehicle context, send a bid, and track whether it is accepted, declined, or cancelled.
03Seller-owned parts listings
Browse listings published by parts sellers, save useful items, add them to a cart, and contact the seller using the details they provide.
04Vehicle and road activity records
Keep vehicle details, maintenance information, emergency information, community hazard reports, saved diagnoses, and marketplace activity together.
From symptom to a practical next step
The pilot keeps the driver in control while making vehicle information easier to understand and share.
01
Describe what the vehicle is doing
Select a saved vehicle and explain the sound, warning light, driving behaviour, or other symptom in your own words.
02
Review the automated guidance
Read the likely issue, safety level, explanation, and recommended actions. Treat the result as guidance, not a final mechanical inspection.
03
Choose how to continue
Save the diagnosis, look for a mechanic or seller, or turn the useful details into a repair request you control.
04
Coordinate directly in the pilot
Compare mechanic bids or seller listings, review profiles and feedback, and contact the provider that fits your needs.
