Our 18 is around 89K miles. V6 Auto
Can't speak for the first 60,700 miles only our terms of ownership. Daily driven around town and not offroad. So far 2 long trips to Branson and to Chattanooga from NW Indiana. Next month (NOV 2024) it will take us to Gatlinburg and back and then again to Jackson, GA and back.
67.400 miles. Our first oil change I tried Liquimoly 0W20 when the OLM dipped to about 15% as it worked well in my Audi. Could not tell a difference. Mopar filter
75,970 miles. Mobil 1 0W20 oil, Mopar filter
83,600 miles, Mobil 1 0W20 oil, not Mopar filter, possibly Fram cant remember.
Right now averaging 7,600 oil change interval.
Will be doing fluids change this winter along with spark plugs and VVT seals

100K is a milestone but far from impressive.Modern vehicle with proper maintenance should have no problem get to 150K or 200K.
With more care, it can go up to 300K - 500K.
Why this standards are lower for Jeep.
Coming from K24 engine with proper maintenance, 100k miles was considered barely broken in.
I try to drive my Jeep everyday but it is not my daily so the reliability and durability is not as important at this point. But judging from people's reactions here, we can tell how low the bar is for these domestic branded products.
I love my Jeep, still. Now sitting at 76K, no issue yet but I just don't have the same confidence compared to other vehicles I previously owned. My last daily driver had 290K when I traded it in. Other than some oil leaks associated with old engine, it was drama free. 5000 miles or 6 months, whichever comes first, oil change interval.
