There must be a way that such a smart, motivated community that loves this vehicle can access and preserve the complete parts list and shop manual. Even if it requires screencap-ing each of 10,000 screens at $1/screen, I bet we can crowdfund such a project in no time (100 owners each paying $100 is peanuts compared to the risk of not having the future ability to maintain our vehicles).

Perhaps someone with access can propose a fair way to compensate his or her time for archiving this data?

I imagine a future, wistfully I know, in which this community has sufficient knowledge and expertise to not only maintain our Karmas but to actually improve the software, etc. I hope we can get there.

In the process of doing this all ready have two weeks of downloads to sort though not as easy as you may think .Due to the design of the web base system and the hyperlinks that are used .

Any news?? Have not heard of anything on the FA BK status...As for future maintenance, I am all for pitching in whatever it takes to get the info and figure out how to develop a shared way for us all to have access to a method of maintenance- Karma owner service company etc- I am reaching 10K miles and nervous about driving but I love this car-my Jag gets a pitiful 1000 miles a year now. Would hate to garage this thing but every day i get more nervous about having somewhere to turn to get service- Penske owns Fisker of Scottsdale and no word at all from them- Penske I don't think is to interested in helping the few Fisker owners.

I just purchased a 2012 Fisker Karma and I could really use a shop service manual (there are no mechanics near me so I have no choice but to try and fix small issues on the car myself.

Anyone know how I can download or buy a service manual pdf?
Thanks.

It was in a thread a while back. Someone is hosting this via dropbox. Here it is:
