  • Right-Hand Drive, Left-Hand Problems: FOA in the EU & UK

    Right-Hand Drive, Left-Hand Problems: FOA in the EU & UK
    Aug 15 2025
    In this episode of the Ocean Currents podcast, Andrew Bock and Bill Spohn are joined by Miles Sedgwick and two prominent FOA leaders from the EU and UK — Geeta and Jose — to dive into the unique challenges and successes of Fisker ownership outside North America. The conversation addresses common perceptions that the EU and UK communities are “left out,” highlighting instead a vibrant, collaborative ecosystem of owners and volunteers who are innovating solutions, supporting each other, and building bridges across language and geography. From the nuances of right-hand drive vehicles in the UK to organizing cross-border parts distribution and solving complex software issues, Geeta and Jose share firsthand stories of community ingenuity — like crowdfunded water pump buys, on-the-road repairs during ski trips, and volunteer-led “boot loop” fixes. They emphasize that FOA is a truly global effort, with shared problems and solutions flowing between continents, and that patience and cooperation remain key to long-term success. Listeners will gain insight into the resilience and creativity of EU and UK owners as they navigate software updates, parts availability, and service coverage while working toward a unified, worldwide FOA. Along the way, the discussion offers a healthy dose of humor, camaraderie, and even a few good-natured jabs about driving on “the wrong side of the car.”

  • Talking Troubleshooting with Fisker Technician Dorian Rosales

    Talking Troubleshooting with Fisker Technician Dorian Rosales
    Jul 13 2025

    Ocean Currents is excited to bring this episode to the Fisker Ocean community. On today's episode, we're joined by Dorian Rosales from Pat's Garage (a legacy Fisker shop) in San Francisco. Dorian spent several months troubleshooting and attempting to fix a pretty material issue with my Fisker Ocean...doors that would not open.

    Dorian shares his insights and learnings from this ordeal (and many others), one that we hope won't be a widespread issue. If you have any follow-up questions from this conversation, feel free to send us an email.
