What is your question?
Wondering what's wrong. I got an oil change at Walmart. A day later my entire car shuts off at the intersection. First the RPM starts moving rapidly then everything just powers off.
How long has your 2017 Chrysler Pacifica had this problem?

Hi, this is Bo, an auto expert on RepairPal's Car Genius team! It sounds like your Pacifica is throwing a bit of a temper tantrum at the intersection. Given that it happened right after an oil change, it might be a coincidence, but let's not rule anything out just yet. First off, double-check those battery terminals and connections. Sometimes, a loose connection can cause your car to completely lose power, kind of like when your Wi-Fi cuts out right in the middle of a good movie. The alternator is another suspect. If it's not charging the battery properly, your car can run out of juice and shut down. Also, make sure no wires or sensors got disturbed during the oil change. A diagnostic scan might reveal more, especially if it's an intermittent electrical gremlin at play.
