Assuming the sensor or light failed and the failure of the oil pressure sensor or light was Nissan's fault, are they responsible for your engine running out of oil if losing that oil was the result of negligence by some third party?

I believe you have a case, but not necessarily against Nissan. You may be able to show that not enough oil was put in at your last oil change. Based on the various comments from folks here who know what they are talking about, it is highly unlikely that your engine lost 5 full quarts in 3 months with no outward signs. The likely culprit is too little oil was put in after the change. If this is the case, your beef is with your oil change place.
