2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Jeep Grand Cherokee? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, generate excess heat, and eventually lead to Jeep Grand Cherokee engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Jeep oil on my own? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Jeep Grand Cherokee spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Jeep Grand Cherokee oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Jeep Grand Cherokee oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • Why is my Jeep Grand Cherokee oil light illuminated? Your Jeep Grand Cherokee oil change reminder light might illuminate if it’s been too long since your last oil change. On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Do I need to replace my Grand Cherokee’s oil filter when changing my oil? Every time you change the oil in your Jeep Grand Cherokee, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
