Things get spilled on sidewalks all the time. Most people look for obstacles and avoid them. Unless the HOA maintains the streets and sidewalks in your community, they have no jurisdiction over what happens there (including the homeowners repairing their vehicles there).

I'm not entirely sure that you have any kind of case against the HOA for your son's failure to watch where he was going and avoiding the obstacles.

I'm confused how this oil could be such an important point in your life, yet your son was negligent enough to manage to slip on it. Something appears to be fishy in the state of CA.
