Oil level sensor?

)il Had an issue with my 2021 truck. I guess it was a quart low and close to oil change, and it shut everything down. Is there no code that would allert the driver of 1 quart low on oil?
The dealer worked on it for almost 2 days before they found a service bulletin on it. I guess nothing came up when they looked at it.

Will the engines still DO have dipsticks that are there for a reason unlike the transmissions now days that don't have dipsticks , there to check the engine oil level, thank god on your behalf that it shut down, not sure if ruining an engine by running it out of oil is covered under the warranty. I've checked my new 2021 5.0 3 times over 2400 miles and its just off a whisker.

Radud, I am having some of the same issues with the lights going crazy and truck is shut down like in one of your earlier post. Did you have two separate instances or was this both tied together?

After 2 days, what did the dealer do to fix it?
Just add a quart of oil?
Or were parts needed?

truck problems

The PCM had to be reprogramed. Ford had a recall on it. Oil level had nothing to do with it . so they say
