I saw this today as well. Many other independent shops have been finding multiple manufacturers of 2020MY vehicles with engine issues (now that they have had time to run upwards of 150,000 miles) and are going back to recommending 5k oil changes. There is also a person who does youtube vids on oil (Valvoline?) and tests all different versions and how well they last, including one that can 'clean' an engines internals. I like the 10k idea but dont physically see oil looking in good condition after 5k and would rather replace it than be sorry later in the miles.
