Sorry to hear about your situation. I don't think Nissan is to blame for this problem; of course, whoever did the oil change. Reason why there wasn't any oil warning light because I assumed you were moving constantly all the way home. This makes the oil drain slower than if you were sitting still.

I had this problem once when my oil filter o-ring was damage. I drove on the highway for about 50 miles before I noticed a faint knocking noise in the engine. So, I pulled over, turned the ignition off, and popped the hood open. Looking in the bay, I could smell burnt, but there was no smoke. I walked back and turned the ignition on. Guess what, the oil engine started flashing; but the temperature never went over half. After that, I checked underneath the car and the oil was rushing out. That was my Honda.

Anyways, the Nissan warning systems are probably like any other maker. Again, sorry to hear what happen to you and I hope everything is alright.

Edit: My bad, I see that you meant Nissan as the "Nissan dealer" not the brand.
