Is the regional service rep based in Atlanta? That would be excellent news for me!karma1 said:

We're all rightfully impatient that things are taking much longer and are much more painful than they need to be, but it was really only a few short weeks ago that a picture of seven actual cars sitting on an actual dealer's lot would have been the most beautiful sight in the world! In the macro view, things are moving along very quickly now it seems. Of course, that's scant consolation for the folks who have been delivered a car only to watch it sit waiting to be fixed.

I just spoke to Fisker corporate and I asked them about this. Here's what I learned:
Fisker has issued a Technical Service Bulletin to their dealers that require two changes to the car before they can be delivered (or returned, presumably) to customers:
They were both listed on the TSB, and are the only two items on the list.
I am guessing here, but I think the "grounding strap" is the cable that grounds the 12V battery. I've had grounding issues in other vehicles and it's led to all sorts of hard to track down and hard to reliably reproduce gremlins. It's actually a bit reassuring; If they have determined there is in fact a ground fault issue that would go a long way toward explaining some of the erratic behavior we've seen, and why some cars are much worse behaved than others (I'm looking at you, Brian)
For all of the cars in port, or those in transit like mine, the grounding strap will be replaced concurrently with the car being flashed to 6.13
