Fisker Ocean owners are facing a challenge as the automaker filed for bankruptcy after ending production of the electric crossover SUV in May. Despite the issues highlighted in reviews, Fisker continued to work on software updates to address the problems. However, with the bankruptcy filing, future updates, vehicle servicing, and spare parts supply are now uncertain.
Over 6,000 Ocean SUVs were sold between May 2023 and now, with many owners forming the Fisker Owners Association to ensure ongoing support for their vehicles. The association’s main focus is on securing service, parts, cloud software access, resolving recalls, and addressing warranty concerns. The goal is to prevent the vehicles from becoming expensive liabilities in the future.
American Lease acquired Fisker’s remaining inventory of Oceans for $46.25 million, with plans to work with the Fisker Owners Association to maintain parts supply. However, individual owners may still face challenges in accessing necessary resources for their vehicles. Despite the obstacles, the association is determined to find solutions to keep their Oceans on the road.
With a group of dedicated and tech-savvy owners leading the charge, there is hope that the Fisker Ocean community will be able to overcome the hurdles caused by the automaker’s bankruptcy. The passion and commitment of the owners, along with potential collaborations with companies like American Lease, may be the key to ensuring the longevity of these innovative electric vehicles. As they navigate this challenging situation, the Fisker Owners Association remains optimistic about finding ways to support each other and keep their beloved Oceans running smoothly for years to come.
