Here's a post with the spec sheets:

If you're thinking Tesla is building its own electric fans for Model S you're almost certainly wrong. At most, Tesla specifies a unique size, power, configuration, etc., but there's another company building it. Just like Tesla isn't doing the chrome plating for the door handles. Just like Tesla isn't sewing the seat coverings and doesn't have a pasture out back raising the cows for the leather seats. At this point in time, there isn't anything Tesla could do to make electric fans better than anyone else.
So, having specified and tested some samples of fans, Fisker and Tesla, and probably every other company in the world, is then content to simply order them, unbox, and install. Fisker/Tesla probably pull one out of each batch at random and test it to be sure it's meeting specs, and it if were considered critical they'd test random samples in various failure modes. But, they obviously can't test each fan to failure because then they'd have nothing to actually install.
Back to this case here. If the fans have a design defect, then the blame goes to Fisker, as they should have detected that in both design reviews and failure mode testing. If, however, there was a manufacturing defect, then the blame goes to the manufacturer - although depending on how many fans are defective it's arguable that Fisker should have caught it in random sample testing.
That's my view, anyway.
