I believed the problem is DC. I had my first oil change today and after my CF is serviced, I realized that they only put 6 quarts of oil. The service manager showed me their brand new Crossfire service manual which showed 6 quarts. I showed him my owners manual showing 8.5 quarts.

He then brought the CF back to the shop and when he came back he told me that they talked to the tech support who told them that the CF requires 7 quarts.

He then pulled the dipstick and showed me the oil level which is a quarter short from the top level. He said that tonight it will rise up to the top level.

I reviewed the old posts here and everybody seemed to agree it's 8.5 quarts. This may be one of the things you need to be weary of in your first oil change.

I think DC is looking for a class action lawsuit from this if one day this case will cause accidents, the fact that their manual under serviced Crossfires by putting 6 quarts of oil.
