    I have a 2013 jeep patriot fwd. Its engine oil capacity according to the manual is 4.5. Since i accidentally overfilled will it damage my engine?

    IMO I would remove some oil and recheck the level on the dip stick. Lift the Jeep onto jack stands, loosen the oil pan bolt and drain some oil into an oil pan.
