Due to a shops error my oil filter fell off (while I was parking thankfully) because it was the wrong size. They kindly fixed their error by bringing me the right filter and refilling my car with oil. They gave me a free oil change vouture and two free car washes. I'm not really the sueing type, so I was glad they just fixed their mistake. This was at about 117000 miles.
Now, at about 118700 miles, I have started to smell oil burning. I checked my oil tonight and it is very low. My car didn't have this problem prior to the oil filter falling off and I was wondering if the oil filter falling off could have caused my car to "leak" or use abnormal amounts of oil. I'm bringing it into the shop in the morning.
