I went and had a oil change at my local dealership less than 3 weeks ago. On saturday I felt my car have less power and overall struggle a bit more in normal driving conditions as I pulled in to my driveway my oil pressure light turned on. When I got out I see a huge puddle of oil under my car. I call the dealership they said to tow it over for them to look at. Once towed over the dealership tech tries to start the car to drive it into the bay. The car's engine makes an awful grinding/ knocking noise before turning off. The tech tried turning it on but nothing happens. The tech then radios for someone to bring in some engine oil, as they put it in the oil it spill all over their floor. They finally push it in to the bay, they remove the cover and see that the oil plug is not there. They admitted that their last tech probably forgot to tighten it to spec and with the vibration and oil heating up it must have fallen out. Going over today to see what they are going to say.
