was driving lexus 2001 300gs 176k miles on it and it seems i may have run over something though i saw nothing in my view in the road; there was a loud thump or knock and I proceeded to drive 3 miles home no issues no warning light or overheating. except, smoke from perdominant left side of underneath car and smell like oil burning moderately. got home and went into house for 2 minutes came out and HUGE OIL pouring out of underneath car onto drivway and could see the trail all the way down the road that i had been leaving all the way to home. Car drove perfect home. But is there damage done because i drove it like this 3 miles? The oil pan had a hole in it. what happened? Did I run over something or what else would cause this to happen

I had my airbags replaced and the entire dash board of my car replaced. When I put my car in the shop there was nothing wrong with my car before I put it in the shop. Now in less then a week after getting my car out of the shop my VSC light and check engine light came on and will not go off. Does the repairs have anything to do with these lights coming on? In addition, when I got my car back my gas cap and trunk would not open using the button inside the car. 1 Answer
