There is no dealer, so the question every Fisker Ocean owner eventually asks is where the parts come from now. The honest answer is that they come from several places, it depends where you live, and almost all of it exists because owners built it.
The short answer
Parts for the Ocean are available. Not every part, not always quickly, but the situation is nothing like the total blackout owners feared when Fisker stopped.
Two suppliers carry most of it. Tsunami Automotive covers North America and Tidal Wave covers the whole of Europe, the United Kingdom included. Neither is an ordinary commercial distributor: both are owned and run by owners, which is most of the reason they stock what they stock. Between them they handle the bulk of what an Ocean needs, including parts that were genuinely difficult to obtain at any price a year ago.
Where to buy, by region
Where to buy parts depends on where the car is located and what you need.
- North America - Tsunami Automotive
- Europe, including the United Kingdom - Tidal Wave
- Other suppliers - Fiskershop.eu in Austria, Fisker Ocean Parts in the United Kingdom, Salvage Surfers, Errons, Electrified Ocean and eBay
Both carry accessories as well as replacement parts. Members can get a discount on a good deal of what they stock, so it is worth asking before you order anywhere else.
Salvage and used parts are worth taking seriously rather than treating as a last resort. Parts from a salvaged car is often the same part you would have waited months for new, and for body panels and interior trim it is frequently the only route. Before purchasing a used or salvaged part, please consult with the FOA community for things to look out for. We have some general things to look out for:
- Keys and NFC Key Cards - Keys are chip-locked to specific vehicles, and cannot be reused unless they have been decoupled and removed from their original vehicle. Verify that salvaged keys have been removed from their original vehicle prior to purchase.
- Electronic Control Units (ECUs) - ECUs are the various computers within the Ocean. Almost all ECUs must be re-coded for your specific vehicle. If/when you purchase a salvaged ECU, note that the ECU will likely have to be re-coded for your vehicle or else it will not work properly. Please consult a service provider or FOA Advanced Unstaller for compatibility.
What is still hard to get
Windshields are the standing example. They need a specialist supplier, and for a while the question was not what one cost but whether one could be had at all. Supply in North America is steady now, though lead times are longer than anybody would like while logistics are arranged with the new supplier.
That mattered beyond the inconvenience. An insurer that cannot source a windshield cannot repair the car, and a car that cannot be repaired is one an insurer would rather not cover. Getting glass into the supply chain kept Ocean insurance viable in places where it was starting to look doubtful.
If you are quoted an impossible lead time on something, ask in the community before you accept it. Somebody has usually solved the same problem, and occasionally the part exists under a different name from a supplier who does not know what car it fits.
The parts most Oceans end up needing
Three come up far more than anything else.
Heater water pump
A known item, and one the association spent real effort on: securing access for service providers, and then establishing availability in Europe rather than leaving European owners to import one part at a time.
How you get one depends on which side of the Atlantic you are on. In Europe, Tidal Wave sells them, and it is an ordinary purchase. In the United States, the water pump is part of an NHTSA recall, so the part is not something you buy as an owner. Contact oceanrecalls@fiskerinc.com and have it handled as recall work.
Door handles
The original handles are a known weak point. Chevalier, the manufacturer of the door handles, is still in business and still supporting parts for the Ocean. You can buy them from Tsunami and Tidal Wave, and from Chevalier themselves through their online store at Fisker Ocean Parts. Current inventory at Tsunami, Tidal Wave, and Chevalier are all new stock, and door handles are all Generation 2a (aka "Gen 2a"), and resolve the known recall issue. Please note that door handles provided by the NHTSA recall work, are not Gen2a and remain suseptible to failure. The recalls article details the issue more thoroughly.
Key fobs and key cards
In mid-2024, a new key fob used to cost over $1,000. Tsunami and Tidal Wave now carry key fob bundles with two NFC key cards for significantly less. The price drop was not an accident: the association organised a bulk purchase that saved participating members more than a full year of dues in a single order, and has run free key fob pairing events around the world, each saving an owner somewhere between $100 and $250 on top.
There are no further group buys planned, and that is a good sign rather than a gap: the first one did its job, and most owners who wanted a spare key now have one.
Pairing the fob to your car is also something you can now do yourself with the OceanLink Pro app, which changes a workshop visit into a brief task at home.
Why any of this exists
None of it was inevitable. The car was built by Magna Steyr in Austria, who also builds for BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and Jaguar; several of the original suppliers are still operating. But a supplier being alive is not the same as a supplier selling you a part for a car whose maker no longer exists.
What closed that gap was owners building the supply themselves. Tsunami is a parts company owned by the Fisker Owners Association and run independently of it. Tidal Wave is its European counterpart, and is owned by a group of Ocean owners. Both were set up to get parts to the people driving the cars, which is why they carry things a commercial distributor would have dropped years ago as not worth the shelf space.
That is also why the member discount is not a marketing gesture. The buying power came from owners in the first place, and the discount is some of it coming back.
If you cannot find what you need
1 - Ask service shops first, even when the part is not listed. Write to info@tsunamiautomotive.com or info@tidal-wave.eu. They can often source something that is not on the shelf, and where enough owners need the same thing, they have started projects to have the part manufactured. A part nobody sells today is not necessarily a part nobody will ever sell.
2 - Owners also keep a running list of aftermarket parts that have been confirmed to fit, in a thread in the community. You need to be signed in to read it.
3 - Owners have, and continue to work hard to scan and make available 3D printable files for many trim replacement parts. Check out this thread in the community. You need to be signed in to read it.
4 - The association’s community is the other place to ask. Between them, owners have sourced most things at least once, and the answer is frequently a supplier or a substitution that is not obvious from outside.
If the problem is fitting the part rather than finding it, the service points list shows the workshops that will take an Ocean.
