This is probably what will occur.
Like filling your propane bottle. The attendant will check to see if it
is in date, and reject it if it has expired.
I can't see the dealership turning down the opportunity to "service"
your fuel cell car.

"Fatigue" is the answer to your question.
When you repeatedly stress materials, minute flaws grow and result in
failures. Filling and emptying the pressure vessel results in a fatigue
cycle, and will eventually result in failure of a highly stressed part.
You can bend a coat hanger in half

What happens to Mirai tanks that have been refueled 300K to 500K
without a tank change? Do they pose a danger to the general driving
public?
Today, as an aside, I drove my Model 3 90 miles at 65 mph with the
equivalent of 3 adults in the car, AC running, and averaged over 5
miles per kwh. I was
Also, H2 is VERY good at escaping things. The atoms are so small.
So while this means it's hard to build a perfect containment system for
it, it also means that if you only have a very small leakit's hard
to build up in a normal (not passive house level of sealing) building,
as it can

Is it mandatory, though? It seems to be nothing more than a

Could it be partly because they've sold only about 8,500 of them since 2015?
Low sales volume means fewer

There is no doubt that the H2 systems, including the tank, are
thoroughly leak checked. H2 is straightforward to detect in minute
quantities.
However, the world is an imperfect place. Screws fall out. Leaks occur.
I am surprised that they omit
ell-ventilated space makes me want to find an
authoritative source. It may be the difference between a slow leak
and something faster.
