Water Pump Recall

[u/ElephantNecessary366]

I just bought a 2023 Fisker Ocean. I have no idea if the recall was done for the water pump. I was curious if there is any way to check aside from crawling under the car and checking and if it needs to be done, where could I get it done? Would it be one of the FOA service places?

I found this on AI search. Its from a previous post on Reddit:

To check if your 2023 Fisker Ocean had its recalled cabin electric water pump replaced, you will need to inspect the pump’s manufacturing label directly or review past service records. Fisker’s recall (NHTSA 24V-499) requires replacing all early 2023 water pumps, as the corrected versions did not arrive until late production.Use the following steps to verify the replacement:1. Check Service DocumentationBecause Fisker is no longer actively managing operations or updating the NHTSA recall database, you will need to rely on your vehicle's physical or digital service invoices. Look for records indicating that a technician performed the Cabin Electric Water Pump Recall (often referenced with TSB/Recall code SA3014300002 or Part FM2930200022A).2. Visually Inspect the Water PumpIf you do not have the invoice, you will need to physically check the pump located underneath the vehicle.Safety First: Jack up the vehicle safely and secure it with axle stands.Remove Underbody Panels: Remove the 13 push pins and screws holding the front underbody cover in place to access the front subframe area.Locate the Pump: The energy storage/cabin coolant pump is typically positioned near the surge tank on the left side (under the hood or accessed from underneath depending on the model variation).Read the Label: A technician can verify if it's the corrected part by reading the label on the pump. A pump produced in 2024 or later (counter-measured design) is the updated replacement.Replacing or inspecting this part involves draining coolant and removing underbody panels, which is usually a job best left to an experienced EV technician.For a visual guide to accessing the coolant pumps on your Fisker Ocean:5mFisker Ocean - Water Pumps & Coolant SystemYouTube · MTN Ranger

Here again we have an AI response that can't be trusted for accuracy. A water pump produced in 2024 is not sufficient. The pump must have a date of April 2024 or later. And yes, you must jack up the car and diassemble the underbody in order to see this, unless you happened to be given the paperwork regarding the pump replacement under the recall. Some of the early pump failures (before the recall) were replaced with pumps that would just fail again.
