2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee maintenance schedule

The factory schedule for normal driving. Oil changes follow the oil-change indicator on most models; severe use (towing, dusty roads, lots of idling) shortens some intervals.

A dot means the service is due at that mileage or after that many years, whichever comes first. Engines: see schedule title.

Flush and replace the engine coolant at 10 years or 150,000 miles (240,000 km) whichever comes first.

Severe duty (all models)

Once a month or before a long trip

Check engine oil level
Check windshield washer fluid level
Check the tire inflation pressures and look for unusual wear or damage
Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder and fill as needed.

Change oil and filter.
Rotate the tires. Rotate at the first sign of irregular wear, even if it occurs before the oil indicator system turns on.
Inspect battery and clean and tighten terminals as required.
Inspect brake pads, shoes, rotors, drums, hoses and park brake.
Inspect engine cooling system protection and hoses.
Inspect exhaust system.
