Jeep Grand Cherokee With 3.6L Leaking Oil (Look HERE first)
My 2014 3.6l is unfortunately suffering from the infamous oil filter housing/cooler leak
I noticed it when changing the oil today
I have no idea how long it's been leaking though, could be recent, could be years I've had the vehicle for 5 years, driven ~50k miles The original plastic housing is prone to cracking, warping, and leaking, especially if overtightened during oil changes Fca revised the part, but it remains plastic
