LYLO Mechanic (Love Your Loved Ones) is an AI-powered vehicle diagnostic and safety app that helps everyday drivers understand what's wrong with their car and whether it's safe to drive.

The idea came from my own experience. I borrowed $2,000 to buy a used car that seemed fine. Two weeks later, the check-engine light appeared. I repaired it, but the problem returned, and eventually the transmission failed. I wanted to build something that could help other people avoid that experience.

LYLO lets drivers describe symptoms, scan dashboard warning lights, enter diagnostic trouble codes, photograph engine components, check vehicle recalls, and connect an OBD-II adapter for real-time vehicle data. It also includes collision assistance, repair guidance, and a used-car check that flags recently cleared diagnostic codes.

The key innovation is its safety architecture. Deterministic rules evaluate vehicle safety first. Meta AI investigates possible causes using recorded evidence, but it cannot override those rules to declare a dangerous vehicle safe. If the AI fails or times out, the rules remain in control.

LYLO includes Simple and Mechanic views, offline diagnostic capabilities, and 12 interactive demo tours. Anyone can explore the app through a web browser without an account, vehicle, or OBD adapter.

Built independently during the hackathon, LYLO demonstrates how Meta AI can make vehicle diagnostics more understandable while keeping safety decisions grounded in verifiable evidence.
