Hi all, first time poster. Decided to register and make a post since I saw a couple other topics reporting the same.
2017 Sport, 3700 miles give or take. Accelerated hard from a stop to get by a second lane of traffic, couple seconds in experienced a sudden and rapid loss of power. "Low Oil Pressure" appeared on the dash, and I was in what I'd assume is limp mode. Shuttering when I gave it any gas. Luckily I was 3 miles from home. Checked the oil when I got there and it was barely on the dipstick. Called the dealership and they wanted me to bring it in, which I did the next day without an issue. No lights, no warnings, and the car drove absolutely fine.
Got it back yesterday and they said they couldn't reproduce the issue, and it was just low on oil. At that point they did its first oil change and sent me on my way. Should I be worried that a car this new is that low on oil after 3700 miles? I'm fairly mechanically minded, so I'm worried the dealership missed a potentially serious issue. Thoughts?
PS - Look forward to being a member of the community! I'm leasing the car and I love it, so this turn of events is pretty upsetting.
