Model-year reading

What the 2016 record can and cannot say

Compared with other Toyota Mirai years here, the 2016 total is 0 above the median year in this model file. Its raw count is 2, with no denominator for vehicles sold.

At 1 reports, Fuel/Propulsion System is the most common displayed tag. The 50% share describes submitted complaints only; it does not describe the fleet.

Steering rack replacement provides the strongest parts-only stress test at a $1,738 midpoint. Local labor raises the bill, while claim rules can lower what the plan actually pays.

Evidence and provenance

Three evidence layers, kept separate

NHTSA signals: 2 submitted complaints, 0 recalls and 198 manufacturer communications. These are report counts, not failure probabilities.

EPA configuration evidence: 1 matched fuel-economy configurations help remove incompatible repair scenarios.

Repair-cost modelling: 14 applicable non-wear scenarios use published benchmarks where available plus parts and independent-shop labour assumptions. These ranges are not dealer quotes, repair-shop quotes or invoices.
