Most likely your Manual Lever Position Sensor (MLPS) is failing.

Depends on the transmission - assuming an E4OD an aftermarket sensor is about 50 bucks.

It usually won't show up in tests. If you use a scan tool to monitor PRNDL sometimes you can see it jump from D to N. Usually I just change the sensor because the fault happens so fast it is hard to detect. It NEVER will set a code.
