Hyundai Elantra 2015 oil filter (spin-oil filter- brand name unknown)
Recently, a colleague had his oil/filter changed at a local garage. After 2 weeks, he noticed the engine oil pressure light was flashing, added 2 quarts of oil and then drove back to the local garage. The garage reported that the oil filter rubber ring failed and also damaged the engine.
What is the root cause of the failure?

He parks on the street and when he returned he just noticed the fresh oil puddlelocation where he added the 2 quarts earlier. It has been leaking for the last 2 weeks.
He doesn't have the filter and is negotiating an engine replacement.
