A small, self-contained, inexpensive, vehicle maintenance system has a vehicle unit that stores and retrieves maintenance information about a vehicle. The vehicle unit mounts on the inside of a vehicle's windshield and employs a solar panel to power it. The vehicle unit stores the vehicle maintenance information in an internal nonvolatile memory. The vehicle unit employs standard wireless technology to communicate with external computing devices such as a smart phone or tablet. The vehicle unit employs open architecture to allow various mechanics to access the stored maintenance information of the vehicle and various other information such as the type of oil being used, the past history and replacement part numbers. The vehicle unit also may receive information from the external computing device to store current information and add it to the maintenance history. The vehicle unit may also employ sensors and a communication device that can notify the driver when the vehicle has entered and exited maintenance bay.
