Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I am being quoted $1400 CAD for the repair without warranty.
Unfortunately it is just a selector for the transmission and is not internal to the transmission components. You can argue that if the selector is malfunctioning there is a risk that the transmission will also not work. In addition there is a risk that the warning holds a vehicle rolling risk that could lead to injury or death. Maybe even allowing the vehicle selector to go into park or reverse while in motion (likely electronics to protect from this but I am not sure).

The fix works and instructions are quite detailed as a last resort. Good luck!
