In December last year, leasing company Drivalia sent an email to its Fisker Ocean customers. The email was not a threat, but 'good advice', the company now says.
It was not a threat of a disclaimer, but more of a piece of good advice, when the leasing company Drivalia disclaimed any liability in an email to its Fisker Ocean customers.
At least that's what the company itself thinks.
In an email from December, Drivalia writes to customers, according to an email that Motormagasinet refers to, that the leasing company disclaims any responsibility for the cars if they are not delivered back 'before the end of the year'.
But it was not a threat, says CA Autobank, which owns Drivalia, now. However, they will not address the disclaimer from the first email.
At FDM, they do not believe that the leasing company can disclaim any responsibility for the cars. Not even though Fisker in Denmark has now gone bankrupt and the parent company in the US is in liquidation.
Fisker Inc., as the car brand is properly called, is still an interesting story, even though it is dying. Because it almost went bankrupt in the entire Nordic region, the brand's founder, Henrik Fisker, said, among other things, that service for electric cars is nothing more than greed.

Today, an American leasing company has bought up the inventory of Ocean models in the United States. This concerns approximately 3,200 cars. It is still uncertain how private individuals who managed to buy cars from Fisker will react.
Speaking of which, the car brand also has a rather unfortunate history with emails sent out to customers. Boosted has previously been able to tell how the brand has tried to wipe warranty and recall cases off drivers.
When the matter first reached the media, Fisker quickly retracted the initial statement. So what happens now? That's a good question. The car brand's website has been 'under maintenance' for weeks. All other information is gone when you visit Fiskerinc.com.
