In the 2016 Jeep Patriot, the recommended oil is synthetic 5W-20 for both the 2.0 L 4-cylinder and the 2.4 L 4-cylinder engines, suitable for all temperatures. The Patriot requires 4.5 quarts of oil with a filter change for each engine. Oil is essential for lubricating engine parts to reduce friction and maintain cleanliness. It is important to change the oil regularly, ideally every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, along with the filter. If you take your Patriot to a mechanic for an oil change, you can expect labor costs to range from $20 to $30.

    The manual suggests using 5W20 Pennzoil but doesn't specify if synthetic or conventional should be used, so either type will work.

    You won't find a full synthetic oil change for $20-$30 anywhere! I bet it's more like around $65.

    My 2.4 requires 5W-20 oil for optimal performance.
