Welcome to Allpar. The oil should meet MS-6395 (MS=Chrysler's material standard) and probably is a 5W-20 viscosity.
Synthetic oils (Mobil1) may not yet meet this standard, but certification is pending. A premium motor oil is best.
Use Mopar oil filters if she has an extended drivetrain warranty or service contract in case anything ever happened that could be called into question. Reset the oil life indicator (oilminder) on the dash before returning the car.
Keep all parts receipts with mileage and date performed as a maintenance record in case they ever needed to be referenced.
Check brakes for wear and pulsation if they haven't been done yet.
There is a cabin air filter for the HVAC that is easily forgotten. Depending on the surroundings (trees), these can get quiet dirty. Always lay down newspapers before pulling it out of the dash (if it is this style) because you never know what will fall out with it.
Borrow the owners manual to familiarize yourself with the vehicle and its recommended service requirements.
