    The rear I change out every other oil change which would be at the 20,000 mile mark.

    Do you idle excessively?

    Did you reset it to 100% the last time you changed the filters?

    I never noticed that.

    Amazon has the fuel and oil filter Mopar combos for 100 bucks I always order.

    You must not drive too much.

    I run about 18K miles a year... so I change mine at 15k.

    You should be able to go a maximum 15,000 miles OR 12 months.

    Not sure why you are at 14% already.

    Personally I would error on the side of caution and inspect the front filter at or near 0%.

    If the filter looks clean then reinstall and finish out your mileage or time whichever comes first.

    If the filter looks dirty then replace both and reset your counter.

    I would abide by what the truck is telling you. With a 2014, it does not simply keep track of the miles to determine when the life of the filters are nearing their end. The truck is computing mileage, hours on engine when moving and while idle, and how much the truck is working. I would hate to have trouble out of the fuel system or poor performance over $130 and half an hour of work. I wish I could go 5 months! I typically get prompted to change filters every 2 months or so due to towing and miles racked up. I would highly recommend being safe and just changing them!
