Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
Date is ongoing since November 2023. I am writing to report a safety concern related to the key fob of my Fisker Ocean One. On December 10 & 22, 2023, March 20 & 29, 2024, I have been locked out of the car for prolonged periods of time of more than 30 minutes and up to 5 hours. I have experienced daily failure to properly lock and unlock the vehicle, once I am in the vehicle even when putting the key fob up next to the NCF reader, the vehicle notifies me that no key can be detected, and the car will not start/go into ready mode. Issues continues daily which leaves me stranded and unable to access the car in an emergency. I cannot properly secure the vehicle against theft and unauthorized use, and it deactivates the vehicle's immobilizer system. Continuous signal transmission from a defective key fob can drain the vehicle's battery leading to further reliability. I believe this is a significant safety issue that could potentially affect other Fisker Ocean owners. Vehicle has been in limp mode unable to accelerate and Fisker reps cannot repair for 75+ days. The vehicle is unsafe to operate, I cannot accelerate to get out of harms way or notify other operators that the vehicle is slowing and cannot maintain minimum speed in traffic.

Potential Consequences:
1. While driving, occasionally, a collision warning flashes on the screen in bright red with a loud sound, which is alarming and a safety issue, especially when. Secondly, while backing up, often, if you move within your seat, the car goes into park! Very unsettling. Thirdly, while at a stoplight, the car has gone into neutral several times. There have also been times when I couldn't get into my car due to the keyfob not working. Note, there have been consistent errors ever since I have gotten the cars, but these are the latest in the past few months. Lastly, this week, the screen inside the car just was completely gray, did not turn on even while driving.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
- The key fob does not open the door immediately, and sometimes not for 5-10 minutes. Today, I had cold groceries and I stood outside my car trying to unlock it for 10 minutes. The fob didn’t work and neither did the app on my phone. My mother-in-law often rides with me and she is elderly. She would have had much difficulty in the heat waiting for the car to unlock (luckily not with me today). Any number of emergencies require immediate access to the car - it should…I don’t know…unlock immediately when the unlock button is pressed. - Sometimes while sitting in traffic, the car will randomly go into “park.” If I have to move quickly to avoid an accident or make way for an ambulance, that is very problematic. - Interior lighting randomly comes on, which is especially troubling at night when trying to focus on the light from outside. - blind spot monitoring and radar detection randomly become unavailable several times per week and because I’m used to relying on an indicator before switching lanes, it causes risk.

- The key fob does not open the door immediately, and sometimes not for 5-10 minutes. Today, I had cold groceries and I stood outside my car trying to unlock it for 10 minutes. The fob didn’t work and neither did the app on my phone. My mother-in-law often rides with me and she is elderly. She would have had much difficulty in the heat waiting for the car to unlock (luckily not with me today). Any number of emergencies require immediate access to the car - it should…I don’t know…unlock immediately when the unlock button is pressed. - Sometimes while sitting in traffic, the car will randomly go into “park.” If I have to move quickly to avoid an accident or make way for an ambulance, that is very problematic. - Interior lighting randomly comes on, which is especially troubling at night when trying to focus on the light from outside. - blind spot monitoring and radar detection randomly become unavailable several times per week and because I’m used to relying on an indicator before switching lanes, it causes risk.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
Our Fisker Ocean has experienced occasional power lapses, but we could overcome them by switching driving modes. This afternoon on our return drive home the car shuddered when approaching a red light, and my ADAS alert went off. A few miles later the car would not proceed at all, and I switched driving modes but without luck. Pulled over and conducted the soft reset of the car's operating system, still no luck. If I could sense patterns, this has only occurred after updating to the car's operating system to 2.0. And it seems the car disagrees with our warm spring temps, as these incidents didn't occur in February or March. Submitted a work order 2 weeks ago for the deceleration issue (as well as no air conditioning and a strange fan noise), no one from the company has followed up.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
I just bought/got my Fisker Ocean Extreme, it barely had 500 miles on it. I have already had numerous issues with this car. Ex, emergency braking system, electrical, GPS, sensors, honestly you name it! The company has been of no help, I was on hold for 5 1/2 hours today. Only to hear from a robot telling me my call is important and that an agent (that never came) would be right with me. The cat also has ZERO capability of AC nor Heat at the moment. It’s well over 100° where I currently live with humidity. I can’t even drive my vehicle at the moment unless the temp outside is believe 80°. This is absolutely absurd. I tried to take the car back to the dealer, they explain that they don’t have any Fisker techs onsite nor do they know anything about the vehicle. HOW CAN YOU LEGALLY SELL A CAR THAT YOU CANT SERVICE OR KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT? This is completely unsafe and now I am paying a car payment for a vehicle I cannot safely drive.
