Check engine light, vsc light, traction control light. All 3 lights came on at same time. They say it's the gas cap, it's not the gas cap, they say to reset it, that doesn't work. I was driving home, nothing happened, the lights just came on. No warning sound, nothing to indicate there was a problem, my car seems to drive just fine, but the lights won't go off, and i have 3 kids that i take and pick up from school

Our vehicle has 119,698 miles of wear. We had our vehicle serviced at a reputable dealer. While stationary, both a wheel stud (during tire rotation), and the oil pump tensioner bolt hole (during service) broke. Dealer told us excessive force was not used. I believe inferior metal used in manufacturing.

Engine
One of the front engine oil seals failed while the vehicle was being driven in local traffic causing all of the engine oil to be pumped out onto the hot engine and exhaust emptying the crankcase in little more than 1 minute. I pulled into a gas station and opened the hood to investigate the smoke and smell of burning oil. The oil on the hot exhaust ignited and was quickly extinguished with the stations garden hose.
