Default Couple of problems recently

First, when I put the car in Park, it doesn't go into park and continues to roll until I push the shifter a little past Park to engage it.

Second, the ABS INOP, BRAKE, and TCS OFF lights go on and off randomly.

Sounds like you need to adjust your shifter linkage/cable. I'm not familiar with the auto shifters on these cars, but there should be some way to make adjustments.
As for the lights, I have no clue.

for the lights you could have an abs sensor going bad or shorting internally...

There was a bolt missing and a loose bolt with the transmission linkage. It's nice and solid now.
