Feb 16 (Reuters) - The U.S. National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA) has opened a preliminary probe
into claims of unintended vehicle movement in about 4,000 of
Fisker's FSR.N 2023 Ocean electric sport utility vehicles, the
agency said on Friday.
The NHTSA's Office of Defects Investigation received four
complaints "alleging unintended vehicle movement" related to the
2023 Ocean model.
The complaints alleged an inability to shift into the park
mode or into the intended gear, which could result in an
unintended vehicle movement, the U.S. auto safety agency added.
One of the complaints alleged an injury, the NHTSA said.
Fisker did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for
comment.
