Abstract

A computer includes a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to predict a time to failure of a vehicle component according to a damage model generated from vehicle operating data, based on the predicted time to failure, retrieve a schematic of the vehicle component and input the schematic to an additive printer to manufacture a replacement vehicle component, and replace the vehicle component with the replacement vehicle component according to maintenance instructions that, based at least in part on the predicted time to failure, specify a time and location to replace the vehicle component.
