Did the range sensor CEL come on. You can try Colin gears a couple time while sittin still. Go down to 1 then each one at a time in easy flow movement. The range sensor is pretty much the NSS. Tell the jeep what hear your in. If its gunked up and the sensor isn't fully on a slot the jeep will think you're in 3, or reverse or something else. Happened to me last week. CEL came on and keep wouldn't come outta 3. She's been fine now

And the stalling on bumps sounds also like a ground issue or loose connection at battery.
