Just because he went 4k miles past an oil change doesn't mean the oil just magically disappeared. It went somewhere. Yes of course its not good to go that long, but oil doesn't evaporate... it will get dirty, break down and lose its viscosity. OP said the tech claims there was only half a quart in the engine. Sounds like bad piston rings to me. Good luck OP with whatever happens. The dealership is probably going to put up a fight with the warranty.
Lessons learned guys... check your oil at least once a week, and there is NO low oil indicator light!!!! Its low oil pressure, and that doesn't indicate your oil level!
