I thought motor is electric, meaning no oil.

It has oil in the back motor and a see through reservoir. It should have a line when the fluid is level when the top is up. Fluid is linked below.

If it has a leak. You will see it in the lines or by the unit. Its on the driver side in the trunk left side.
