2019 PHEV. Left dealership oil change 2 days ago and transmission started missing. Went somewhere else next day and transmission fluid had been drained from car. Up until that point, there was no sign of a leak. 2nd place refilled transmission and no the leak is apparent. Is the cause of my engine light coming on? They said I need a new transmission. What else can I do? Any other thoughts?
Thanks

Did the Service person at tge 2nd place, not find the Drain plug lose or with a cracked seal?

If not then, sounds like the Dealer never put fluid in it.

Weird that you did not see a warning light or Service Light on.

No, the second place couldn’t identify where the leak is coming from just that I need a new transmission. They said that’s why my check engine light had come on. Leak is now apparent when I drive car goes into safety mode and won’t accelerate.
 
Erm...

Transmission? In a PHEV?

I'm surprised that I haven't seen members on the forum talking about this before.

When did the Outlander PHEVs get a transmission?
