Sorento LX V6

My oil sensor came on. The oil has been changed 2 weeks prior. I didn’t see an oil leak in garage. Called local Kia dealer and they said it was a sensor malfunction. I made an appointment to take it in, sensors were on back order. I was told by the dealership it was fine to drive. A week later I noticed an oil leak under car in garage. I called the dealership back and was told the sensor still wasn’t in. I was told to check oil and add as necessary and that it was no big deal, they would call when the sensor came in, and it was going to cost 200-300. Finally 3 weeks to a month go by, I eventually had to add oil, got a call that the sensor was in. I took the car in and wound up spending 1750.00 and wait another week for more parts to come in. It was an oil pressure sensor leak and it was a mess.
