Feels like a good opportunity to in addition to having the normal system diagnosis, have a process that listens to the sound the car makes and recommend bringing it into the shop if the sound sounds weird or off.

This really is a tremendous idea and if vehicle software engineers were better they might actually be able to do it.

Some ACs use exactly this method. Haven't found any other household appliances that use sound for diagnostics.

Samsung appliances do this I think? Or some other brand.

You basically call a number and then press a button on the appliance and it produces a sound that tells the customer service what's wrong.
