Black oil is good, its when the red in the expansion/header tank turns from red to grey mucky slop that you worry that means oil has found its way into the system, early sign is a grey/blak high tide mark in tank and a scum under the lid also find a scum under the oil filler cap when coolant/water makes its way into the sump....... If you get serviced by a dealer don't panic if your nice red/pink coolant seems to have a pinky scummy mark in the header tank it an additive which they put in, I think its a leak seal actually.... any sign that the colour of your coolant is changing is cause for an investigation ............ Its not a Jeep thing though other brands have oil cooler failures as well.
