The contact owns a 2022 Toyota Mirai. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 MPH, the vehicle started losing motive power. The accelerator pedal was depressed, and the vehicle continued to decelerate. The contact stated that while driving approximately 15-20 MPH, several warning lights were illuminated, and the stability control symbol was displayed, and a yellow flashing warning light was illuminated. The yellow flashing warning light turned red, and the vehicle stalled. The instrument cluster turned black, and the steering wheel became difficult to turn. The contact attempted to restart the vehicle but was unable to shift to park(P). The contact stated that a Police Officer attempted to jumpstart the vehicle, but the vehicle failed to start, and a tow truck company was called for assistance. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The contact replaced the battery and was able to start the vehicle and the a “FCV” and the shift to park(P) message was displayed. The contact called a local dealer and was advised that the vehicle needed to be towed to the dealer for a diagnostic test. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 45,000.

Wrong infrastructure was presented to me for the following six years of purchasing the vehicle as the fueling station is always down and malfunctioning which means I cannot drive the car and when I called and spoke to a Mirai agent by the name of [XXX] to request a rental to go to work today on August 16th 2023 he refused saying that I need to drive further away from where I live to a station that he claims is within range which means loss of money, mileage and time if I am able to do so because I need to drive a distance back to where I live and then to work, please help.

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep disappointment and frustration regarding the malfunction of the Teammate™ Advanced Drive package in my recent purchase of a 2022 Mirai Limited edition, with the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN): [XXX]. The faulty performance of the system resulted in an accident and subsequent damages to my vehicle. On November 5, 2022, while operating the vehicle with the Teammate™ Advanced Drive package engaged, the car failed to stop as intended and collided with a parked car, causing significant damage. Understanding the gravity of the situation, I immediately contacted my insurance provider and followed their recommended course of action. As advised, I took my vehicle to Carwest Collision Center for repair. Still I have not got my car back due to part issue, if you need more information , please feel free to ask. happy to provide.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Car suppposed to stop itself as it has all sensors. Still car rear ended other car. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Jeopardy. Since accident occured in residential area my family was okay. What if it was in Free way? Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Not yet, they are not providing me alternate transportation during inspection so not ready yet from my side. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Vehicle was inspected by Insurance as normal accident. Not sure if there were further investigation. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No warnings

- 11007455Some 2005 2024 Toyota vehicles that have undergone water intrusion may exhibit a condition in which a musty odor is present. Follow the procedures in this bulletin to remediate the odor and address this condition. The purpose of this Service Bulletin is to provide general guidelines and procedures for odor remediation. This Service Bulletin provides a guide on how to prepare and treat the interior of the vehicle for odor remediation. Refer to the applicable model and model year Repair Manual and the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) website for the most up-to-date safety and precautionary guidelines. This Service Bulletin is to provide a general overview and direction for the odor remediation process.
- 11007445The condition known as acid rain is caused by airborne chemicals or particles in the atmosphere, which mix with rainwater, nighttime dew, or high humidity to form acidic compounds. If these contaminants settle and remain on a painted vehicle surface, especially the horizonal areas of the hood, roof, and decklid, significant damage can occur. This damage is the result of actual etching of the paint and appears as pitting or water spots. As acid rain droplets on the vehicle surface evaporate, the concentration strength of the acid increases, causing deeper and more rapid damage. This evaporation and corrosive action also occur more rapidly on dark colored cars as direct sun heat increases. It is the dealers responsibility to protect and maintain the quality of the vehicles paint finish after receipt at the dealership prior to the first sale. In areas known for high frequency and/or concentration of acid rain (see Figure 1), frequent vehicle washing during high heat or humidity periods will minimize the potential for paint damage caused by acid rain. It is further recommended that either reverse osmosis or deionized water be used to prevent water spotting.
- 11007444To prevent brake rotor rust from forming during transportation and storage, wheel film will be used instead of a cardboard type of anti-rust cover. The purpose of the wheel film is to shield the disc brake rotor from weather elements and initial rust before the vehicle is delivered to the customer. Consequently, the film should remain on the wheel for as long as possible.
- 11007443Acid rain results from rainwater or other airborne moisture that become acidic due to industrial chemical impurities in the atmosphere. If these acidic compounds settle on an exposed vehicle, especially the horizontal areas such as the hood, roof, and decklid, significant damage to the painted surfaces can occur. Acid rain damage can typically be identified on vehicles by the presence of stains on the paint surface that resemble hard water spots. Unlike water spots however, acid rain damage cannot be removed by regular washing procedures. Also, because acid rain can etch and soften the paint, normal buffing or polishing repair procedures should not be attempted. This can cause further damage and result in visible depressions in the paint surface. The following are the three major categories of acid rain damage: Minor damage: requires only buffing to repair. Moderate damage: usually requires neutralizing, color sanding, and buffing. Severe damage: extending beyond 1/2 mil of clearcoat on a pearl, metallic, or solid color, requires neutralization, sanding, and repainting. In cases where acid rain damage is minor, neutralization and buffing with a liquid-type paint finessing product may provide an adequate repair. Only specially formulated products outlined in this bulletin should be used for that purpose. Unfortunately, other than minor damage, there is no simple method of determining the actual extent (depth) of acid penetration other than color sanding a representative affected area until there is no visible etching or depressions, followed by measuring the amount of paint removed with either a magnetic or digital-type film thickness gauge. The procedures in this bulletin are intended for use by qualified body/paint technicians and should not be attempted by inexperienced personnel. It is the dealers responsibility to protect and maintain the quality of the vehicles paint finish after receipt at the dealership prior to the first sale. Perform frequent vehicle washing, as often as daily, during high heat and humidity periods to minimize the potential for paint damage due to acid rain exposure. This is especially important in geographical areas known for high frequency and concentration of acid rain and industrial fallout.

- 11005153Toyota vehicles are currently protected with RapgardTM protective film designed to protect the horizontal painted surfaces. This material protects from acid rain, environmental fallout, and rail contamination.
- 11005149Vehicles may occasionally be subjected to contamination by airborne iron particles shed from railroad tracks, train wheels, exposure to heavy machinery facilities, grinding, welding, etc. This type of contamination can be identified by the presence of small, red or brown particles on the paint surface. These particles are often difficult to see on dark color paints but can be easily felt when brushing a hand across horizontal body surfaces such as the hood, roof, or deck lid.
