2014–2025 Jeep Cherokee Oil Change Information

Regular oil changes are essential to maintaining your Jeep Cherokee’s performance and longevity. The Jeep Cherokee is equipped with an Oil Change Indicator System that monitors driving conditions and engine performance to determine the optimal time for an oil change. Instead of relying solely on a fixed mileage interval, this system analyzes factors such as engine temperature, operating conditions, and driving habits.

Once the system determines the oil is nearing the end of its effectiveness, it will display a "Change Oil Soon" message on the instrument panel. When this message appears, schedule an oil change as soon as possible, preferably within the next 500 miles. Oil change intervals should not exceed 10,000 miles or twelve months, whichever comes first.

2014–2025 Jeep Cherokee Tire Maintenance

Regular tire rotations help ensure even tread wear, improve handling, and extend the lifespan of your tires. Uneven tire wear can lead to poor traction, reduced fuel efficiency, and even alignment issues. By rotating your tires at the recommended intervals, you help maintain balanced performance on the road.

You should rotate your Jeep Cherokee tires with each oil change, making it easy to stay on top of both maintenance tasks. However, if you frequently drive in harsh conditions (off-road, towing, extreme temperatures), consider rotating your tires more frequently.

Knowing when to replace your tires is crucial for vehicle performance. Look for these warning signs:

Tread Depth Below 2/32": Using the penny test, insert a penny into the tread with Lincoln’s head down. If you can see the top of his head, it’s time for new tires.

Uneven Wear: Excessive wear on one side of the tire may indicate alignment or suspension issues.

Cracks or Bulges: Sidewall damage can lead to blowouts. Replace tires if cracks or bulges appear.

Vibration or Noise: Excessive vibrations or humming noises may indicate worn tires or alignment problems.

Frequent Loss of Pressure: If your tires constantly lose air, they may have leaks or be nearing the end of their lifespan.
