With rev match on you can only imagine how that sounds. I rarely drive the car (less than 1k miles a year) but I swear it used to only go by 5th/6th if you pressed down to get it into reverse. All the gears can be found and work but it is very annoying and not working correctly.
This sounds like either the shifter assembly wasn't installed properly and/or was improperly assembled. Something here definitely is off and it should be addressed before driving in traffic.

Definitely leads me to believe the CSC is the culprit and this could likely be the result of it being improperly installed/assembled.

As hard of a pill as this may be to swallow, I would grab my car from that shop and take it to a reputable shop that is familiar with our chassis and it's particulars.

I really hope you get this figured out and get her back on the road ASAP.
