First of all, I want to say thanks to everyone on here who posts all of the useful information on here. Very helpful.
Ok on to my question.
Is there such a thing as a reliable 2012 Fisker Karma?
A few weeks ago, I purchased a mint condition Karma (Software Ver. 510) online from the original owner in FL (a car collector) with only 6k original miles on it (I made sure the Vin number was over 1500). He said he recently replaced the Hybrid battery and Contactor
#5 (whatever that is).
I’ve only had the car for two weeks and It’s already in the shop!
1. After charging it over night, the car wouldn’t start (had a flashing green READY light on the dash). While waiting for AAA to arrive, after an hour the Flashing Green Ready light went away and the car started.
2. The HVAC system is stuck on defrost mode!
3. The high beams don’t turn on.
4. The right front turn signal only works sometimes (intermittently).
I’m already thinking about selling it. The Karma mechanic in SF told me “It’s not a Honda Civic”. I’m guessing he means there not reliable cars.
Is there such a thing as a "Reliable Fisker Karma"? Does anyone own a Fisker Karma they consider reliable?
