1. A computer-implemented method for providing augmented reality overlay displays related to vehicle repairs, comprising:
obtaining, by one or more processors, sensor data associated with a vehicle captured by one or more permanent or temporary in-vehicle sensors;
analyzing, by the one or more processors, the sensor data associated with the vehicle in order to identify a vehicle component that is not functioning properly;
identifying, by the one or more processors, at least one possible repair for the vehicle component that is not functioning properly;
determining, by the one or more processors, whether it is safe for a vehicle operator to perform the at least one repair for the vehicle component that is not functioning properly; and
based upon determining that it is safe for the vehicle operator to perform the at least one repair for the vehicle component that is not functioning properly:
presenting an augmented reality overlay display upon images or video of the vehicle captured in real time, wherein the augmented reality overlay display identifies vehicle components that must be manipulated in order to perform the at least one repair; or
based upon determining that it is not safe for the vehicle operator to perform the at least one repair for the vehicle component that is not functioning properly:
presenting an augmented reality overlay display upon images or video of the vehicle captured in real time, wherein the augmented reality overlay display identifies portions of the vehicle of which the vehicle operator must capture images in order to one or more of: (i) request a professional repair of the vehicle component or (ii) submit an insurance claim related to the vehicle component that is not functioning properly.
