Good thing is that you got the service done at the dealer; so they should be covering for it, not in a warrantee kind of way.

I had this happened to me before on my dd. It was too cold to do my own oil (winter) change so i took it to the shop to get it done. After weeks of driving and noticing a tiny droplets of oil, my engine threw a rod on the highway. I parked and looked underneath and saw the oil pouring out like a faucet. Took it to the mechanic and they show me the filter rubber seal was snapped in two. So good luck in getting it fixed.
