What is the 2018 Jeep Compass’s oil type?

I’m due for an oil change on my 2018 Jeep Compass but this is my first time changing the oil in a car since I started driving. Is there a specific type of oil I need to put in my Compass?

If you’re scheduling your oil change with a mechanic, you’ll only need to provide them with your car’s make and model. From there the mechanic will take care of changing the oil on your 2018
Jeep Compass
. But if you’re curious, a 2018 Jeep Compass uses 0W-20 fully synthetic motor oil.
If you’re a newbie to taking care of your car, here’s some additional information that might come in handy when it comes to routine maintenance:
  • Get your oil changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles
  • Replace your wiper blades every six to 12 months
  • Fill up your windshield wiper fluid routinely—this can be done at home and doesn’t require a mechanic
  • Get your Compass’s wheels aligned every 6,000 miles
  • Replace your tires every 50,000 miles
  • Get your battery tested every five years
Regular maintenance is the perfect way to increase the longevity and reliability of your Jeep Compass. Catching small problems as they come up will save you from paying for expensive larger repairs later down the line.
