Factory Service Intervals: A Detailed Breakdown
Jeep's recommended maintenance schedule is designed to keep your Gladiator performing optimally. Adhering to these intervals is crucial for preserving your warranty and maximizing your vehicle's lifespan. Remember that your specific driving habits and environmental conditions can influence these recommendations.
| Service Item | Interval (Miles/Months, whichever comes first) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Oil Change | 10,000 miles or 12 months | For the 3.6L Pentastar V6, use FCA US LLC (Mopar) approved API SP or ILSAC GF-6 certified 0W-20 synthetic engine oil. The Gladiator's Oil Change Indicator System will illuminate when service is due. In severe driving conditions (towing, frequent off-roading, extreme temperatures, prolonged idling), consider changing every 5,000 miles or 6 months. |
| Tire Rotation | 10,000 miles or 12 months | Rotate tires regularly to promote even tread wear and extend tire life. Check tire pressure at every oil change and before long trips. |
| Cabin Air Filter | 10,000 miles or 12 months | Replace more frequently in dusty environments. This improves air quality inside the cabin. |
| Engine Air Filter | 30,000 miles or 36 months | Inspect at every oil change. Replace more frequently if driving in dusty or off-road conditions. A clogged air filter can reduce engine performance and fuel economy. |
| Spark Plugs (3.6L V6) | 100,000 miles or 10 years | Use Mopar-recommended iridium spark plugs for optimal performance and fuel efficiency. |
| Automatic Transmission Fluid (ZF 8HP75) | Inspect at 60,000 miles, Replace at 120,000 miles or 10 years (normal duty); Sooner for severe duty | While considered |
