What type of oil does a 2016 Dodge Grand-Caravan take?
Use SAE 5W‑20 oil that meets Chrysler MS‑6395; full synthetic is recommended for durability.
This grade supports proper cold-start flow and high‑temperature protection for the 3.6L V6 in the 2016 Dodge Grand-Caravan. We install OEM‑spec oil and a MOPAR filter, then reset your Oil Life Monitor and check for leaks. If you prefer a different brand that meets MS‑6395, ask your advisor.

The 2016 Dodge Grand-Caravan 3.6L typically holds about 6.0 quarts with a filter change.
Capacity can vary slightly with residual oil and filter design, but most services on the 3.6L Pentastar use roughly six quarts. Our certified MOPAR technicians fill to spec, verify the dipstick level warm, and check for leaks before returning your van.

Is it worth getting a 2016 Dodge Grand-Caravan oil change at the dealer vs a quick-lube shop?

2016 Dodge Grand-Caravan Oil Specifications
The 2016 Dodge Grand-Caravan 3.6L V6 is engineered for SAE 5W‑20 oil that meets Chrysler MS‑6395 to balance cold‑start flow and high‑temperature protection. Typical capacity is about 6.0 quarts with a filter change, which we verify on the dipstick at operating temperature. We install a MOPAR oil filter (e.g., MO‑349 or equivalent) to ensure proper filtration and anti‑drainback performance. Under normal driving, the Oil Life Monitor will indicate change timing, often up to 10,000 miles or 12 months; in severe Tucson conditions—heat, dust, towing, or constant stop‑and‑go—shorter intervals are prudent. Using the correct oil and filter helps maintain quiet valvetrain operation and long-term engine cleanliness. Bring your 2016 Dodge Grand-Caravan to Larry H.
