Salt, snow and hills: the data
Reading the 2022 Cherokee data for Great Lakes roads
From the Snowbelt east of Cleveland to the ridges of West Virginia and east Tennessee, this part of the country throws salt, snow and grade at every vehicle. Here is how the 2022 Jeep Cherokee specifications line up against all three.
Wheels, tires and freeze-thaw roads
The smallest 2022 factory size is 225/60R17, the largest P235/50R19. Each thaw in Michigan and Ohio opens new potholes, and a tall sidewall survives them best: the 17-inch fitment flexes over a sharp edge where a low-profile tire can pinch or bend its wheel. After a hard hit, look for a sidewall bubble.
What the manual says about oil
Oil capacity is 5 qt (2.0L), 5.5 qt (2.4L) and 6 qt (3.2L), and the manual lists SAE 5W-30 (2.0L), SAE 0W-20 (2.4L) and SAE 5W-20 (3.2L). Where more than one engine appears in the lineup, the engine code on the window sticker settles which grade applies. The wrong one in a Tennessee winter gives up a little protection on every cold start, and over years of driveway starts that adds up.
Battery checks before the cold
The spec sheet lists 700 cold-cranking amps. It is an AGM battery, so the replacement should be AGM as well. A Cherokee left at a lake cottage or in a pole barn for weeks slowly drains its battery, and a cold snap then finds it with nothing to spare. A plug-in maintainer for stored vehicles is cheap insurance in the Great Lakes states.
Which wheels do the pulling
Factory drive configurations for 2022: front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. The same trim name can come with more than one drive system, so on a used Cherokee confirm it from the window sticker or a VIN decode rather than the badge. In west Michigan, where lake-effect bands can pile up several inches of snow in an hour, driving both axles is what gets a loaded vehicle up an icy driveway.
Cold mornings and the tire-pressure light
Air pressure falls about 1 psi with each 10°F drop, so the swing from a gray, mild lake-effect afternoon to a clear, frigid morning can trip the warning light overnight. Set pressures cold, to the door-jamb placard. An underinflated tire is also easier to damage in a pothole, because the rim sits closer to the edge it hits.
Coolant through freeze and climb
Fluids table: OAT coolant (10-year/150,000-mile formula), 9 qt (2.0L), 7.2 qt (2.4L) and 10 qt (3.2L). Scheduled replacement comes at 10 years or 150,000 miles. Stick to that chemistry, since mixing coolant types can shorten their protective life. On a used Cherokee from Tennessee, ask whether the coolant was changed on time, and check the level in the overflow tank with the engine cold before you drive it.
Fuel reserve for storm closures
Fuel capacity: 15.8 gallons. Lake-effect whiteouts can shut stretches of I-94 in Michigan or I-90 through the Ohio Snowbelt for hours, so keep the tank from running low between November and March. If you do end up stranded, a running engine for heat needs a tailpipe clear of snow.
Specifications are the manufacturer's; the weather and road context is ours. When a note here and the 2022 owner's manual disagree, follow the manual.
2022 Jeep Cherokee questions
How much oil does the 2022 Jeep Cherokee take?
With a filter change: 2.0L engine, 5 qt / 4.7 L; 2.4L engine, 5.5 qt / 5.2 L; and 3.2L engine, 6 qt / 5.6 L. Capacities are from the owner's manual; check the dipstick or oil-life display after filling.
What kind of oil does the 2022 Jeep Cherokee use?
2.0L engine: SAE 5W-30 full synthetic, API SP/GF-6A certified (MS-13340); 2.4L engine: SAE 0W-20 full synthetic, API Starburst (MS-6395); 3.2L engine: SAE 5W-20 full synthetic, API Starburst (MS-6395); and Engine oil filter: Meets or exceeds SAE/USCAR-36 filter performance requirements (SAE/USCAR-36).
When is the first scheduled maintenance on the 2022 Jeep Cherokee?
At 20,000 miles or 2 years: inspect the cv/universal joints; inspect front suspension, boot seals. tie rod ends, and replace if necessary; inspect the brake linings, parking brake function; clean and lube sun roof tracks; replace the cabin air filter. Oil changes in between follow the oil-change indicator.
Where can I find the 2022 Jeep Cherokee owner's manual?
The manufacturer publishes it free on Mopar.com as a PDF (linked in the manuals section above), along with quick guides, radio manuals and the warranty booklet.
What MPG does the 2022 Jeep Cherokee get?
The EPA rates the 2022 Jeep Cherokee at 21–26 MPG combined, depending on the version. 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, 9-speed automatic, FWD: 23 city / 31 highway / 26 combined; 2.4L 4-cylinder, 9-speed automatic, FWD: 22 city / 31 highway / 25 combined; 3.2L 6-cylinder, 9-speed automatic, FWD: 20 city / 29 highway / 23 combined; 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo, 9-speed automatic, AWD: 21 city / 29 highway / 24 combined; 2.4L 4-cylinder, 9-speed automatic, AWD: 21 city / 29 highway / 24 combined. Ratings are the EPA's laboratory figures from fueleconomy.gov; real-world mileage varies with driving, load and weather.
What size tires does the 2022 Jeep Cherokee use?
Factory tire sizes: 225/60R17 (Latitude LUX 4x2); 225/65R17 (Latitude LUX 4x4); 225/60R18 (Limited); P235/50R19 (Limited (with Limited Elite Group)); P245/65R17 (Cherokee X and Trailhawk). The recommended cold inflation pressure for your exact tires is on the tire placard on the vehicle, not in a single table.
What changed on the 2022 Jeep Cherokee?
New trim: Cherokee X; Dropped trims: Latitude and Latitude Plus; Powertrain no longer listed: 2.4-liter Tigershark MultiAir 2 I-4 with stop-start — Nine-speed automatic; New option package: Premium Leather Group.
Does the 2022 Jeep Cherokee have recalls?
NHTSA lists 3 safety recall campaigns for the 2022 Jeep Cherokee. The most recent: Power train (May 2026), Air bags: side/window (July 2024), and Exterior lighting: turn signal (March 2024). NHTSA's data was last fetched November 8, 2026. Recalls are listed by model year, so a given vehicle may or may not be covered: enter its VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask a dealer to see which are open.
What are the most common safety complaints about the 2022 Jeep Cherokee?
Owners have filed 52 complaints about the 2022 Jeep Cherokee with NHTSA. The components named most often are power train (29), electrical system (8), and engine (8). 3 complaints involved a crash and 0 complaints a fire. Complaints are reports from owners that NHTSA does not verify, so treat them as a signal to look into, not a finding.
What is the 2022 Jeep Cherokee's NHTSA crash-test rating?
NHTSA's overall 5-Star Safety Rating for the 2022 Jeep Cherokee is 4 out of 5 stars (Jeep Cherokee SUV AWD: 4 and Jeep Cherokee SUV FWD: 4). The rating combines frontal, side and rollover tests.
Specifications come from the manufacturer's spec comparison and its media-site specification sheets; maintenance schedules, fluids and publications come from Mopar's owner site and owner's manuals. Equipment and ratings vary by configuration; check the owner's manual or a dealer for a specific vehicle.
