Sounds like a faulty selector switch to me, best bet is buy a haynes manual and remove the switch and clean it/regrease and replace as per instructions.
If you are not confident about doing it ( its not hard) then see if a mate can do it for you.

Get it scanned and see what fault shows , otherwise just guessing .

Whittinghame`s suggestion is a good idea, although be wary of dtc`s if any, that show allkinds of strange faults as the selector is mechanical in operation and should not show on a scanner, but may throw up other problems which will be cured once the selector is sorted.
A decent mechanic should be able to differentiate this.
