In the 2017 Jeep Cherokee, the type and quantity of oil required vary depending on the engine installed. For the 2.4 Liter Engine, it can hold 5.5 quarts of Mopar SAE 0W-20 engine oil or an equivalent meeting FCA Material Standard MS6395. Meanwhile, the 3.2 Liter Engine has a 6-quart capacity and Jeep suggests using Mopar SAE 5W-20 engine oil, or a similar one like Pennzoil or Shell Helix. All engine oils must be API Certified, and synthetic oils are acceptable if they meet the specifications and have the same SAE viscosity grade. Regardless of the engine size, it is advisable to monitor the oil level regularly in the Cherokee, ideally checking it each time you fuel up. Allow the oil to drain for at least five minutes before checking the level to ensure it has returned to the oil pan adequately.
