current status information for the following maintenance service tasks:
Z Engine oil* (date and miles)
Z Vehicle check (date and miles)
Z Front brake pads (miles)
Z Rear brake pads (miles)

For each specific maintenance service task, either the future date (month/year),

remaining before a brake service will be required to be performed.
