In the short term, they could easily use this to lock people out of being able to perform certain routine maintenance operations on their vehicles, forcing them to go to authorized dealers and paying exorbitant markups.
In the long term, tires, filters, and brake pads could become proprietary in the same way as Keurig's K-Cups are now, though I imagine with more complex DRM.
