Fisker has been having a tough time lately, almost falling apart completely. This isn’t just a business problem; it’s affecting Fisker owners too. A recent story shows how a small problem for one Fisker Ocean buyer turned into a big headache.
Joy Wanner’s Ocean got a little dent in its door from someone hitting it. Normally, fixing this would be simple, but because of Fisker’s troubles, it became a big issue. A few weeks later, Wanner’s insurance company decided her Ocean was totaled. The damage didn’t seem that bad, just a small dent and a broken hinge, costing about $910 to fix. But the insurance guy didn’t know much about Fisker cars, so he thought it might cost more.
At first, Wanner was excited about buying a Fisker, especially since their electric cars look great. But this experience changed her mind. She said it was like a rollercoaster of emotions. Sometimes the car worked fine, and other times, warning lights would pop up, making her frustrated. She felt like she paid a lot for a car that gave her problems every time she used it.
And it wasn’t just the door ding. Wanner had other issues too, like not getting the right paperwork from Fisker and not getting any help when she asked. In the end, her insurance paid her $53,303 for the car, but that didn’t make up for all the trouble she went through.
Wanner shared her story on Facebook, saying they lost over $20,000 with this Fisker. She’s had enough and wants to say goodbye to it as soon as possible. She hopes nobody else has to go through what she did.
