FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
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.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
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.
