Took my kids to school this morning.
My Low Oil Pressure Light came on when I came to a stop. Then it went right back off. Pulled over and let the oil settle back down. Then checked my oil levels. Oil levels are fine. Just got oil changed 2 weeks ago. After light came on it went off. I drove car about 60 miles after and hasn't came back on.

Get it checked out, low oil pressure is an expensive problem.

If the idle speed drops too low, that can trigger the oil pressure light.

So this can be an idle speed control problem.

I believe the ECU has a fairly long memory, and if there was any significant event at the time of the OP loss, it will still be in the ECU's memory.

I would also check to make sure they put the correct oil filter on and that they used the correct type of oil.

If I were an owner of a 2013 Ford Edge and that Edge happened to be the V6 then I would be in the driveway right now checking\replacing the $19 Oil Pressure sensor\switch.

That's IF i were a Ford Edge owner...or Jeep Liberty Owner

Yeah, if those vehicles are known for OP switch problems, that could be it.

I remember when my brother took his car to one of those quick oil change places.

His oil pressure light came on shortly thereafter.

I looked under the car and found the OP switch broken.

They cracked it with the oil filter wrench, I think, and then it totally fell apart.
