Could be a few possiblities..
The 'shift tube' can break and cause the loose shift selections./ranges Also, at the bottom of the main column body (near where the trans cable connects to the lower selector arm) you'll see 2 torx screws that attach the lower arm to the shift tube. Those screws like to come loose and can fall out causing a selection 'hunt' condtion. If the screws are intact and tight, the shifter tube is probably broken. Sometimes you'll get a 'pop' sound is the tube is cracked or broken.
Here's a quick image of the tube, and the lower arm where the torx screws are (arrow indicated)
