Frequently Asked Questions

Why is an oil change important for a 2024 Toyota Mirai?

• The 2024 Toyota Mirai uses a hydrogen fuel cell electric powertrain and does not rely on a traditional internal combustion engine; however, routine lubrication and fluid maintenance remain essential to protect auxiliary components, transmission or gear lubricants, and long-term drivability.
• Regular fluid checks and scheduled service prevent premature wear of electric drive components, cooling systems, and power electronics, preserving range and performance over time.
• Service at Herb Chambers Toyota of Boston ensures manufacturer-approved fluids and procedures that maintain factory performance and help protect warranty coverage.
• Choosing our dealership often costs less than independent shops when you factor in immediate savings from service specials and the long-term value of fewer repairs and better resale value.

How long does a 2024 Toyota Mirai oil change take?
