How do I know when my 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee needs an oil change?An oil-change reminder, mileage past the last service, dark or low dipstick oil, or a louder startup engine note can signal that service is due.

  • Check the dipstick for low oil.
  • Pay attention to ticking or louder startup sounds.
