Abstract
A method for detecting non-approved parts in a vehicle includes generating a plurality of component identifiers (IDs) for a plurality of components, wherein each component ID identifies a unique component of the plurality of components. The component IDs are stored to a decentralized database. A vehicle identifier (ID) that uniquely identifies a vehicle is generated and stored to the decentralized database. Component IDs associated with components of the vehicle that are stored in the decentralized data base are associated with the vehicle ID. The method includes subsequently, determining that a component of the vehicle has been replaced with a replacement component and searching the decentralized database for a component ID associated with the replacement component. When the component ID associated with the replacement component is not found, the replacement component is determined to be a counterfeit component or a misfit component with respect to the vehicle's ID and an alert is issued to the vehicle indicative of the determination. Otherwise when the component ID associated with the replacement component is found, the decentralized database is updated to associate the component ID associated with the replacement component with the vehicle ID.
