The buyer, a New York-area leasing company called American Lease, says in a new filing that Fisker now believes there is no way to transfer the information connected to each SUV to a new server not owned by the bankrupt EV startup.

Yes that’s a nice thing to fix a problem with a software update. But isn’t it funny how the possibility of updating after purchase seems to mean that products ship without really being well tested. If there’s no possibility of fixing problems once something is in the field, then you make damn sure it works before it goes out the door.
