A vehicle having communications circuitry for connecting over a wireless network to a server for exchanging vehicle condition information is provided. The vehicle includes an on-board computer for interfacing with vehicle systems and the communications circuitry. The on-board computer is further configured to process input received from at least one vehicle interface of the vehicle and processing output via at least one vehicle output of the vehicle. The communications circuitry is configured to send to the server over the wireless network vehicle data for vehicle status information, the vehicle status information is for one or more vehicle systems of the vehicle. The server accesses at least one database that include diagnostics data for a vehicle type of the vehicle and crowd sourced data for the vehicle type, the crowd sourced data includes comments received from one or more users of vehicles of the vehicle type that relate to the vehicle status information of one or more vehicle systems of the vehicle. The server is configured to process the comments to identify a condition derived from the comments and reasoned from description in the comments of substantially similar circumstances associated with a condition of the vehicle. The server is configured to automatically process the vehicle data that is received against the diagnostics data and the crowd sourced data, and the processing is configured to select an alert from among a plurality of possible alerts.
