The 2013 Jeep Patriot has either a 2.0 L 4Cylinder or a 2.4 L 4Cylinder engine that needS5W-20 Synthetic Motor Oil in all temperatures. The capacity for the vehicle iS4.5 quarts with a filter and the torque for the drain plug iS30 ft/lbs. 5W-20 means that 5 is the thickness or the viscosity of the oil at startup, with w standing for winter and 20 is the thickness or the viscosity at operating speeds. Oil is very important because it will help to keep the engine clean and may extend the lifespan of the vehicle. The oil doesn't last forever though so it needs to be changed every so often. For the Patriot you should change the oil and the oil filter every 6,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first.
