According to Fisker, it is recalling a total of 11,201 Fisker Oceans across the U.S., Canada, and Europe, due to an issue which can lead to "a loss of motor power". The company said it will provide and over-the-air update for the issue, which affects the vehicles' Motor Control Unit (MCU) and Vehicle Control Unit (VCU) software. The company also said it is recalling 6,864 Fisker Oceans in the U.S. and 281 in Canada, because they "do not currently comply with certain Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) standards regarding gauges and telltale icons in the cluster display".
