1. A method comprising:
measuring operational frequencies of a plurality of components of a vehicle during operation of the vehicle;
comparing the operational frequencies to a model comprising modeled frequencies for one or more operational states of each component from the plurality of components;
tracking a rate at which the operational frequencies in a particular frequency range associated with a specific component of the plurality of components match different frequencies that are modeled for a set of operational states that precede an abnormal operational state for the specific component in the model;
determining a remaining time before the specific component reaches the abnormal operational state based on a difference between the rate that is tracked and a modeled rate for changing to the abnormal operational state in the model; and
presenting the remaining time before the specific component reaches the abnormal operational state on one or more of a vehicle console or a user device.
