Sounds like a shifter linkage or valve body issue. Call 2-3 auto trains shop and talk to them about it. If I paid 900 for a repair I would go back to the shop that did the work and talk to them too. I know a few shops down here is savannah

sounds like a linkage issue if the gears are "one off"? Does park still lock the wheels?

I've heard that a bad ecu can cause all kinds of problems. I'm not sure if it could interfere with the transmission though. Hopefully more knowledgeable people can help and confirm/deny that.
