Its in your owners manual (Page 155 according to the Online Owners Manual for a 2017) Under Fluids > Engine Oil:
5.4q without filter
5.7q with filter

On a side note: I didn´t know they raised the capacity by a full quart? Wonder why though? Feels irresponsible to recommend 0W-20 to "Save Gas" while they add a Full Quart capacity of Oil to the Engine... The 3.7L only uses 4.7q
