What type of deduction are you claiming against the vehicle that was not used in your business?  For example, are you taking the standard mileage deduction?  If yes, then you need to enter your business miles, otherwise there is no deduction to claim on your return.  If you  are claiming actual expenses, you would not get any deduction without an entry for business miles driven.  The actual expense deductions are all based on business miles driven.  Thus, the error message you are seeing is consistent with IRS policy regarding the business use of a vehicle.  If you did not use the vehicle for business in 2022, then you should consider removing it from your return.
