Air vents are broken in a month after delivery. Fisker ignored all the service calls, opened tickets for parts replacement and have done nothing to deliver the parts or fix the issue. Multiple alerts comes up, Rear Seat belt not retracting which was notified to fisker via ticket. After the company filed bankruptcy there is no protection or warranty for this vehicle. Safety recalls like Water pump , door handle is not take care and parts are not available. As a owner i have to travel to different state pay the costs for recalls if the parts are available. At this point none of the recalls are addressed , just the notice sent from the federal safety agency that these recalls are active. This is absolutely tragic that we as a consumer are left in a limbo operating this unsafe vehicle putting our life and health at risk.

the federal safety agency recall campaign numbers for the software recalls are 24V865000 and 24V623000, or others can be found in this link for 2023 Fisker Oceans [XXX] . I had to pay out of pocket for the water pump recall work (receipts provided in file upload). Also, all the software updates to address software recalls have not been done and i've been waiting. I've been getting constant safety alerts ranging from lane departure, front collision alerts that it is not functioning, constant camera malfunctions not working causing me to risk running into things when backing up because backup camera not working, and the proximity sensors not working half the time. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Vehicle was bricked due to faulty "GATEWAY MODULE" gateway module was fried due to software version 2.2 OTA download. Vehicle was constantly giving false ADAS warnings and also had issues with driver door NFC reader. I have spent $3,869.75 to install new gateway module and manual download of version 2.2 software. What remedy do I have to recover all or portion of money spent to rectify problems?
This vehicle is subject to several recalls, but thus far I have been unable to get recall work completed. No service providers are nearby. Software updates that are supposed to be done over the air have never arrived. Significant safety issues, such as a potential problem with the door handles getting stuck, a coolant pump that will fail at any time and other issues remain unaddressed by the trustee appointed by the bankruptcy court to address outstanding recall work. The ADAs system constantly malfunctions, leaving some key features unavailable or unreliable.
Original key fob is no longer working. After the complete 2.2 update the range has dramatically dropped.
I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding the ongoing issues that are being seen with the federal safety agency recall campaign numbers 24V865000 and 24V623000. Multiple attempts of this safety recall have been scheduled over the past several weeks for my vehicle, but the update has yet to be completed. As an owner who values safety and reliability, I am increasingly concerned about the unresolved safety issues that were supposed to be addressed with this software update. To date, I have been disappointed to learn that each week brings reports from fellow vehicle owners indicating that their cars have become undrivable following these updates, with a concerning failure rate of approximately 2% to 5%. This is unacceptable for any customer who relies on their vehicle for daily transportation. Additionally, the lengthy 48-hour windows during which our cars become unusable only exacerbate the frustration and inconvenience faced by owners. The expectation of partial updates, followed by yet another potential 48-hour downtime, is not a practical solution. Furthermore, the feedback from owner surveys suggests that complete updates, which should ideally resolve these issues, have only succeeded in under 30% of attempted vehicles. This raises serious questions about the efficacy of the OTA update process and its implementation. I was also alarmed to learn that after five weeks of attempts, only about 10% of the fleet—approximately 300 vehicles—have been successfully updated, despite over 800 VINs submitted for these updates. The lack of service personnel, with only around 20 available nationwide and just five who can travel to address undriveable cars, only adds to the urgency of this matter. It is imperative that this process is reviewed and the underlying safety concerns that have left many of us feeling unsupported and frustrated are resolved in a manner that will be free of cost and successful to the majority of owners. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Braking Issue and ADAS Warning + Lack of Access Concerns I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding the ongoing issues that are being seen with the federal safety agency recall campaign numbers 24V865000 and 24V623000. Specifically, the Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) in my vehicle, which has become increasingly distracting and, frankly, dangerous due to an incomplete or failed 2.2 Over-The-Air (OTA) update is a huge concern. As a responsible driver, I value the safety of not only myself but also those around me, and this situation and others we constantly hear about make me question the process of the recall. Every week, a number of vehicles are reported as undrivable post-OTA updates, with statistics indicating that approximately 2%-5% of owners experience this issue. With 48-hour update windows, my vehicle becomes unusable for an extended period, which is highly inconvenient and concerning. Moreover, I've noted that partial updates are expected, potentially extending this downtime by another 48 hours. I have had a partial update that has left my vehicle in worse shape than before, what could happen if the process is tried again? This inconsistent performance is not only frustrating, but also poses a serious inconvenience to scheduling and executing such a process. Owner surveys suggest that comprehensive updates, which should resolve these issues, have been successfully completed in under 30% of vehicles which were attempted. Additionally, the alarming figures shared indicate that only around 10% of the fleet has been updated in over five weeks, despite submitting over 800 Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs). This inefficiency raises serious questions about the reliability of the process. Furthermore, the fact that there are only approximately 20 service personnel available nationwide, with a mere five traveling to assist customers whose cars are rendered undrivable, is simply unacceptable. This lack of support exacerbates an already troubling situation

I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding the ongoing issues that are being seen with the federal safety agency recall campaign numbers 24V865000 and 24V623000. Following an attempted OTA software update for the safety recall, I have noticed that the pedestrian alert noises are missing, which poses a significant safety risk not only for those around the car but also for the occupants inside the vehicle. This situation is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about the vehicle’s safety features. Moreover, it has come to my attention that a concerning number of owners have reported their vehicles as undrivable following OTA updates, with 2%-5% of vehicles experiencing such issues weekly. The current 48-hour update window renders my car unusable, and now I require another session, an additional 48 hours to complete the update only adds to my frustration. Based on owner surveys, it appears that complete updates, including the correct sounds, have been successfully implemented in less than 30% of vehicles attempted. Given these concerns, I urge you to look into the situation with my vehicle and the entire process. I should not have to pay out of pocket for the safety recall and restored function of pedestrian alert noises, nor the cost of a rental car. Thank you for your attention to this critical matter.
Issues after applying mandated software recall: - Constant visual and audible ADAS warnings are a distracting safety issue - Loss of over 100 mile range Unavailable parts and service for water pump and door handle mandated recalls
Cars door handles regularly don’t work locking me out of car and sometimes in car. Emergency breaking is regularly disabled by car for no apparent reason.
I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding the ongoing issues that are being seen with the federal safety agency recall campaign numbers 24V865000 and 24V623000. My vehicle's braking system, particularly as it relates to its performance over rough terrain, has not yet been addressed. I have experienced significant brake slippage and a loss of function, which poses a serious safety risk. As a responsible vehicle owner, I trust that my car should provide a reliable and safe driving experience, especially when navigating challenging conditions. The frequency of reports from fellow owners about their vehicles becoming undrivable after updates—between 2% and 5%—is alarming and prevents me from attempting the recall process. Knowing that the update process can leave a car unusable for up to 48 hours, and that partial updates might require even more time, adds to my frustration. The statistics shared indicate that only a mere 10% of the fleet has successfully received updates after weeks of attempts, which further highlights the inadequacy of the OTA process. Additionally, I am troubled by the limited availability of service personnel across the country. With only around 20 technicians available nationwide and just a handful traveling to address urgent issues, it is clear that many customers, including myself, may find ourselves in perilous situations without timely support. I cannot afford to wait months for a resolution while I am forced to pay out of pocket for alternative solutions to ensure my vehicle is safe to drive. This situation is unacceptable, and I urge you to take immediate action to address these critical issues. I look forward to a prompt response. Also, I do not understand why my VIN does not register as having unaddressed recalls. I do not have access to any of the technicians on Ohio for the recalls related to parts and have not received the 2.2 update which is supposed to fix the software issues. Can you please correct this?
Fisker Inc has gone out of business. A mandatory recall has been issued and the bankruptcy court has assigned a trustee to ensure vehicles are updated to version 2.2 to address safety recall issues. The update to 2.2 has been extremely unpredictable and the trustee has not been able to complete this recall. Of the cars that were updated, like mine, almost immediately the estimated range has been drastically reduced. The cars were marketed as getting up to 360 miles on 100% charge. Since the recall update, they now get somewhere around 220 miles on a 100% charge. That’s more than 100 miles lost. I had a technician analyze it with approved Fisker software, and he found that the rear motor is now throwing “flux error codes” and not functioning properly. This is causing an electrical issue draining the batteries much quicker than they should be. I spent $200 for diagnostic work and there is no fix at the moment however the trustee is still responsible for rolling out this buggy software and possibly damaging more cars with each remote installation.

There are the federal safety agency recalls on this vehicle, and nothing has been repaired yet. The OTA 2.2 was pushed, causing my 12V battery to drain, and I had to pay out of pocket to replace it. I continue to have brake malfunction error messages along with other error messages displayed on the screen. The infotainment screen consistently goes dark at random times, and I have to reboot the system to get it to turn back on. My door handle on the driver's side has broken, and I had to glue it back on. There is door handle recall work that has to be performed, and nothing has been done. I've been locked out of my car from the inside several times. When will these repairs take place?
Front passenger door handle is stuck closed, should be fixed under recall(the federal safety agency Campaign Number: 24V466 Subject: Safety Recall Campaign TSB55062401 – Outer Door Handles (2023 and 2024 Model Years Fisker Ocean)), but have recieved no correspondence or reply from anyone about it. Passenger door has to be manually opened from inside vehicle since outer handle is not functional. Also, after software updates as per recall, the ADAS system gives all kinds of "lane departure failure", "collision warning failure" alarms that ding incesantly and cant be silenced. It is very annoying and distracting while driving to have blinking lights on the dash and warning buzzers.

Vehicle is stuck in middle of the software update issued. I can't get assistance to fix without a FAST tool to which American leasing is not releasing to Fisker Owners Association or any other shop. Therefore, the recall update has not been completed. I had to pay $330 to have the recalled water pump replaced to which the DOJ stated customers aren't responsible for. I have left messages too. Ongoing intermitting braking conditions....
This is an ongoing problem since November 2023 - software was going to fix the problem but updates have stop coming and the problem are still an issue. I had 4 onsite service calls with no issue fixed. This is the 2nd filing for the same issues (6.21.24 first filing) NO RECALLS have been repaired. I also filed in 2024, under the lemon law in CA, with no response. ABS red warning light comes on, navigation no longer works, no service provided in my area and the car, rebooting the main screens 6-10 per week and many of the feature promised were never installed. How do I get this car repaired and recalls fixed?
MY Ficker Ocean failed an over the air software update on [XXX]. The failure made my vehicle non drivable (could not shift out of Park). The car was parked in my garage for almost two months before a prior Fisker employee was able to look at it. Unfortunately they were not able to fix the software problem and requested I have the vehicle transported to an authorized service center 60 miles away. I paid $200 to have the vehicle flatbed transported to Riverside, CA service center where it sat for a week and could not be repaired. I paid $180 to have the vehicle flatbed transported to Newport Fisker in Costa Mesa where they were able to reinstall the proper software and make the car drivable. It cost me $1000 to have the software updated and the vehicle "unbricked". I picked up my now operational vehicle at the end of October and soon started receiving the bright orange ADAS failure message: 1) ADAS System Failure, Some features limited or unavailable 2) The red ADAS Tell-tale light also remains illuminated. The blindspot detection and warning is no longer operational in my vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Recall 24V865000 24V623000 24V499000 I am writing to express my deep concerns regarding the ongoing issues that are being seen with the federal safety agency recall campaign numbers 24V865000 and 24V623000.I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to formally express my concerns regarding the OTA (Over-the-Air) update process for my vehicle. The current OTA process, lasting 48 hours, is simply not feasible for those of us who rely on our vehicles for daily activities. The inability to use my vehicle during this window forced me to pay out of pocket for alternative transportation, which is both inconvenient and financially burdensome. Additionally, it has come to my attention that there have been numerous reports from fellow owners indicating that a significant percentage of vehicles (approximately 2%-5%) have become undrivable following these updates. This situation is alarming and raises concerns about the reliability of the updates being delivered. Moreover, the lengthy windows of 48 hours for updates, coupled with the expectation of partial updates requiring additional time, have left many of us in a state of uncertainty regarding the functionality of our vehicles and forced to pay out of pocket for a mandatory free recall. According to owner surveys, it appears that complete updates—which include all necessary corrections—have been accomplished in less than 30% of cases. Furthermore, I was surprised to learn that only about 10% of the fleet (approximately 300 vehicles) had been updated after several weeks of attempts, despite over 800 VINs submitted for this process. Being that this is our only car I could not afford to wait for the OTA and its malfunctions. I was forced to pay out of pocket to a Former Fisker Tech to come to my house and manually install as well as have a new 12v battery installed costing me a total of $1,262.89. In addition I have not been able to have the water pump recall installed due to no supply and/or service. How is this legal?

My vehicle does not have Adaptive Cruise Control even though it was advertised as having that feature at the time of sale. Also, collision warning and lane departure very regularly malfunction. I paid $250 out of pocket to replace my water pump following the recall. I will only be able to get reimbursed $175. This is not acceptable.
The warning lights keep blocking up lane assist light. Car won't lock or turn off and go to sleep. Infotainment screen goes black and all the time. Car goes to park when I lean forward when at drive. 12 volt battery keeps goes low. Brake rattling noise coming from brake paddle. Backup camera don't work.drive motor malfunction.

Water Pump Recall/Door Handles Check Recall These recalls were done as I was scared to be locked in my car. Imagine being stuck in your car. The water pump recall causes the car to slow down and go into "limp mode" meaning I could not go faster than 15mph. This could happen at any time. Imagine driving on the highway and the water pump fails.

Even after i was fortunate to receive software update to version 2.2, i still receive frequent driver assistance warnings and periodic unavailability, resulting in loss in automatic emergency braking, lane keeping warnings, blind spot warnings, and similar. Additionally, internal lighting is inconsistent which results in lights coming on while driving that dont seem to have a way to turn off. Lastly, i have paid money to have my key fobs programmed which should have been free, and paid cash to have my recall-related water pump replaced.
Lane Departure warning, lane keeping assistance, red light /green light assistance, etc. have not been available and have not been working for months. Needs software update. Also, have not received coolant pump, which I understand is a mandated replacement part.
After updating to OS2.2, I have experienced nonstop ADAS warnings via the front instrument cluster. I would get constant (ever 5 seconds) of an audible & visual alert indicating: Auto Emergency Breaking unavailable - drive carefully Blind spot monitoring unavailable These alerts have stopped and is replaced with a constant ADAS fault indicator (telltale) on the driver display.
