API for "Upcoming Preventative Maintenance Items" from UI
Hello! I'm looking for an API to provide a list of upcoming maintenance items similar to how the UI displays it. I would not like to use a webhook, I'd much rather pull a list via API.
I looked at the preventative maintenance guide (<https://developers.samsara.com/docs/planned-preventative-maintenance>) for more information, but the guide links to a Telematics guide (which is unavailable). When I click the link to view the telematics guide (<https://developers.samsara.com/docs/vehicle-stats>), I get a 404.
Help! Thank you!

Vehicle selection in driver app doesn't trigger `VehicleUpdated`
First off, love the new webhooks beta and that they can be setup programmatically.
Not sure if this is a bug, but vehicle selection in Driver app doesn't trigger `VehicleUpdated`. Given `/fleet/vehicles` updates `staticAssignedDriver` when the Driver selects a vehicle, I assumed it would flow through the webhook as well. However, manually selecting the driver inside the samsara dashboard does trigger the webhook.

Is there an update when trailer reefer alarms clear?
Referring to this endpoint: https://developers.samsara.com/reference/gettrailerstatssnapshot
`reeferAlarms` in response body: alarm severity. Is this "1" by default? Will this update back to "1" once a "2 check" or "3 severe" alarm is cleared? Or is there some other way to know that an alarm is cleared?

Personal Conveyance (PC) Reporting
We recently switched to Samsara and we're discovering that reporting detail and scheduling is a bit more lacking that we initially thought particularly with report scheduling. There is an inability to select specific days, specific times for start and end ranges and are forced to a full day or full week of reports with no way of adding conditionals to the report data (i.e. if a value is 0 like duration or distance then exclude it from the report).
Our previous ELD provider had a PC report that would show all instances of personal conveyance usage the distance, duration of travel, and start and stop locations. On Samsara, we are limited to total duration for the selected date range with no detail at all. Aside from going to each driver's log and viewing the events individually, there is no way to generate a report that shows each instance of PC usage and the details associated with the usage of each.
Has anyone else found a better method for reporting and auditing Personal Conveyance usage with drivers within Samsara?

Samsara Dataset
Where does Samsara get its speed and roads dataset from? Possible acceptable answers - Google maps API, OSM opensource dataset, etc. Obviously you don't maintain or create such a vast dataset so where do you get it from?
