Car shuts off when shifting to drive? Sign In

I'd sure appreciate any help with this problem with my 2000 Pathfinder:

I started the car and stayed in park for a few minutes. I placed the care in drive and hit the gas and it completely shut-off including all of the interior and exterior lights. It started right back up again and I drove home, but I need to get this fixed. Could it be the battery? I don't think it's ever been replaced. There was plenty of gas, so I don't think it's that.

Thanks for any help!
Rudi

Sure sounds like a real bad connection with battery to vehicle. Check and clean up all connections at the battery, cables on to engine ends and any ground connection between engine and body,
