New Vehicle lost appx 3.5 qts of oil in appx 700 miles of driving, spraying undercarraige with oil, causing light smoke from striking exhaust, and leaving stains where parked. Appx 3oz of engine oil observed by me to accumulate in low area on top side of under engine front plastic fairing (I recommend a 1/4" drain hole in the low area to avoid accumulation of engine fluids in this area). Returned to Dealer for repair. Repair Diagnosis: Front seal engine oil leak (per dealer repair info, non specific). Front seal(s) replaced. Service agent stated she had seen this before with this particular engine (V6 Pentastar).
