The 2018 Dodge Journey should have the oil changed every 3,000 to 5,000 miles when You use conventional oil. If You opt to use synthetic oil then that means that You can change it every 7,500 to 10,000 miles depending on the condition. Synthetic oil is engineered to give You greater wear protection and it is also designed to wear down slower than the standard petroleum based conventional oil on the market. This means that it will need to be changed less frequently. I recommend that You check Your oil at least once a month regardless of the type of fluid that You use. You will want to make sure that it is full and free from any signs of debris or burning.

The recommended oil change interval for a 2018 dodge journey is 10,000 miles or every 6 months from the manufacturer. This vehicle also uses an oil quality indicator to let you know when the oil should be changed.

Best if you follow the Owner's Manual and pay attention to the VIC for an Oil Change indication. It the Oil Change indicator occurs before the time/milage requirement. [Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km), or twelve months]
