    To be fair to Fisker, it's worth noting that this charging port actuator is also used in other EVs made by Jaguar/Land Rover. Since they are built at the same Magna plant, I believe some electrical parts from the I-Pace might be compatible with Fisker.

    About 20 years ago my father bought a 6 months old truck (I think it was a Hilux) from the company he worked at, it had a busted oil pan after someone had hit a curb and was covered in oil so no one thought it was worth fixing it since the engine was probably totaly busted.
    My father got it for about $200 and he thought he'd have it as a project car or sell it for parts.
    It turned out everything that was wrong with the car was that the oil filter had come loose and oil had sprayed everywhere.
    He spent less than $50 on a new filter and oil and spent a couple of hours cleaning it 😀

      They've actually addressed majority of the issues with current level updates...the problem is they have to be done in person by a technician...and there are no technicians around to do this anymore so there's a lot of people who are just left in the wind. They need to at least give people access to the updates and a way to perform them on their own.

    weird fact, if you put 120 or 240v DC into a chevy volt's j1772 port, it directly charges the battery while skipping most of the circuity. need to get a weird high voltage dc power supply, but looking at a lot of the connectors under the hood of this car, it just seems extreamly gm voltesque. idk if you want to mess with this but there are videos of it working for volt.
