Oil Type ?

Does anyone know the type and grade of oil the dealer is supposed to be using for an oil change ? The reason I ask is that my dealer was not even aware it is supposed to be a synthetic. This may be something we all have to watch since there is no sticker on the engine saying what to use unlike other vehicles.

find a new dealer, they do not know what they are doing. recommended is pennzoil 0-20 full synthetic for the 2017 traihawk 2.4L

So with the 2.4L is the recommended 0w20 oil a synthetic oil? Is the oil that came in the car from the factory synthetic? I called the dealership I purchased the car from and they said it is a synthetic oil change for $80. I also inquired about the oil change message telling when to change the oil and he said not to go more than 5,000 miles. I called two other jeep dealers in the area and they were around $40 with no mention of the 0w20 being synthetic. Any thoughts/comments/recommendations?
synthetic oil changes in New Jersey is around $80.00. for $40.00 you are not getting the proper oil
