I have a 2011 Rubicon, so anyway's I started my jeep after 3 day's of -15 weather when I noticed when I was going to leave there was smoke coming from under my hood when
I looked there was a pin hole squirting out oil filter so I had it towed to the dealer & he told me it was from the accident . Then I said what accident so I told him it was last week that it happened .I told him yeah it was hit in the left rear it just broke my tail light & plastic fender skirt , it wasn't a hard hit very minimal damage , is there some physic's of impact that can have all the force from the hit go straight to the oil filter to do that . there was no front end damage or hitting anything else or is he just doing it to get out of free service's . can anyone please let me know soon I have to go pick it up 1/31/14.
P.S the service advisor said he never heard of a oil filter doing that & engine did not shift at all if it did it would have to move about a foot to hit anything 3.8 engine.:yup:
