What is the Jeep Compass’s oil type for 2016?

My mom drives a 2016 Jeep Compass and I convinced her to let me change her oil instead of spending the money at a shop. The only problem is that I’m not sure what type of oil it needs. Any ideas?

Your mom will be so grateful! A
Jeep Compass’s
oil type for the 2016 model is 5W-20 synthetic oil. The 2016 Compass has an oil capacity of 5 quarts and you’ll want to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles for synthetic oil. With regular changes, your engine stays in top shape for longer.
