App Features
Yes! You can log into your CarAI account from any device using the same credentials.

The CarAI assistant is your personal AI mechanic. It provides tailored maintenance advice,
service tips, and reminders based on your vehicle type, usage, and location.
Simply go to your vehicle profile in the CarAI app and tap “Owner’s Manual” in the Home Page to access your car’s manual.
Not at the moment. The AI assistant in CarAI is designed to help with advice, maintenance questions, and vehicle insights, but it cannot create entries or logs.
To add an expense, service, refuel, or other entry, you need to manually do so by tapping the plus (+) icon in the bottom navigation menu of the app.

Insights
The health score is based on the number of overdue service reminders logged in your CarAI account.
Cost per mile is calculated by dividing your total logged costs by the distance driven since
you started using CarAI.
Total cost is based on all ownership expenses logged in the app, including fuel, services,
and other entries.
Fuel efficiency is calculated based on logs from your last two full-tank refuels, using only
entries with odometer readings.
Troubleshooting
Some manuals are very large and may take 1–2 minutes to load. If it still doesn’t appear,
please contact support@getcarai.com.

Maintenance
At the moment, safety recall notifications are only available for vehicles registered in the United States and with a valid US VIN number.
If your car is eligible, you will see a prompt on the Home page to add your VIN. Once added, CarAI will check if the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) issues a safety recall for your vehicle. You will also receive a notification whenever new safety recalls are published for your car.
