Consumer Reports:
Our Fisker Karma cost us $107,850. It is super sleek, high-tech—and now it’s broken.
We have owned our car for just a few days; it has less than 200 miles on its odometer. While doing speedometer calibration runs on our test track (a procedure we do for every test car before putting it in service by driving the car at a constant 65 mph between two measured points), the dashboard flashed a message and sounded a “bing“ showing a major fault. Our technician got the car off the track and put it into Park to go through the owner’s manual to interpret the warning. At that point, the transmission went into Neutral and wouldn’t engage any gear through its electronic shifter except Park and Neutral.
Consumer Reports didn’t like the iPhone 4 very much in its review, but at least the thing didn’t break down.
Dare I say it? Yeah, why not.
Bad Karma.
Cue Nelson.
Fisker must have cut corners on the device’s operating system.
Good point, they have been having funding issues from what I have read on some blogs.
I was actually joking. I’m hoping they didn’t run this thing on a crap OS.
I see what you did there!
Hehehe
Thank you. I should have spelled it “Fiskars”, though.
