The '22's ECM indeed monitors it…the ’22 owner I’m aware of with an engine failure got a CEL and relayed it to Starlink as a Low Oil Pressure CEL…Starlink even contacted the owner asking if he needed assistance when it was triggered.

How effective it is as a warning to the driver may be debatable but it is certainly there…

This isn’t how the warranty works….replacing things that may have an issue makes no financial sense. The warranty is designed and budgeted to replace things that have had an issue as a result of defective materials or workmanship.
