The fall of EV startup Fisker: A comprehensive timeline


Here is a timeline of the events that led fledgling automaker Fisker to file for bankruptcy.

October 5 — The landlord of Fisker HQ’s final resting place — a facility in La Palma, California — says the building was abandoned in “complete disarray,” with hazardous waste and even full-size vehicle clay models left behind. October 7 — The U.S. Department of Justice, writing on behalf of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, tells the bankruptcy court it thinks Fisker’s attempt to push recall labor costs on owners is illegal. Henrik Fisker and his wife Geeta (who was also CFO and COO of the company) established a charitable foundation in late 2021 meant to “incubate innovation in healthcare, education, sustainability, mobility, and all causes that help support the planet and improve and further the lives of people and animals.”
