This is the second time my nissan march dumps all the engine oil while running?

The first time at the nissan dealership they told me that it was because the filter wasn't the right one this happened about 3 month after the first month inspection, we are talking about a brand new car, the second time just happened yesterday about four month from the first incident. I heven't taken the car to the nissan dealership.
Does any boddy has a clue to what might have been happening here?

the oil filter has a little rubber ring on it that seals it to the engine housing. It must be coated with oil before it makes contact with the metal, given a 1/4 turn past hand tight and it should stay sealed. If it doesn't and yur car is that new, make the dealer take it back and give yu a new one or replace the engine at least. this should not be a problem if the oil change is done properly
