//routes
const [routes] = React.useState([
{ key: "dashboard", title: "Dashboard", icon: "home" },
{ key: "notifications", title: "Notifications", icon: "bell" },
{ key: "account", title: "My Account", icon: "account" },
{ key: "vehicle_edit", title: "Vehicles", icon: "car" },
{ key: "appointments", title: "Appointments", icon: "calendar" },
]);

//set bottom tab to first always
useEffect(() => {
setIndex(0);
}, []);

//screens
const renderScene = BottomNavigation.SceneMap({
dashboard: DashboardScreen,
notifications: NotificationsScreen,
account: AccountScreen,
vehicle_edit: VehicleEditScreen,
appointments: AppointmentsScreen,
});

//render
return <BottomNavigation navigationState={{ index, routes }} onIndexChange={setIndex} renderScene={renderScene} />;

react-native-paper Bottom Navigation component design for only for Bottom navigation screen.

You need stack navigation for vehicle_edit. You can simply achieve this by using React navigation stack navigator

Brilliant thanks that solved it..

const Stack = createStackNavigator();
const Account = () => {
  return (
    <Stack.Navigator screenOptions={{ headerShown: false }}>
      <Stack.Screen name="Account" component={AccountScreen} />
      <Stack.Screen name="VehicleEdit" component={VehicleEditScreen} />
    </Stack.Navigator>
  );
};
//screens
  const renderScene = BottomNavigation.SceneMap({
    dashboard: DashboardScreen,
    notifications: NotificationsScreen,
    account: Account,
    appointments: AppointmentsScreen, 
  });
