| Description of the problem | There was a pool of oil collecting in a channel located on the engine block. My first thought was this could be a fire hazard under the right conditions. I have less than 12,000 miles on the 2017 vehicle. First, i saw the oil leak in my driveway, checked my oil and was a quart low. I took it into the dealer who identified the leak coming from the oil filter housing unit. I want to document this with nhsta . There are a growing number of other owners of this vehicle who believe there should be a recall on this part, out of safety concerns. |
