If the Battery warning lamp is coming on, the engine stalls and the starter just clicks, and you have to have it jump started to get going again [I assume anyway] then it sounds like the charging system isn't always working and the battery is getting drained to the point that the engine computer and fuel pump quit working. Low voltage can also affect how the transmission functions and when the transmission goes into a default position you'll only have Park, Reverse, Nuetral, and 2nd gear. [it may seem like first gear however] I'd start by having the charging system tested to make sure it's capable of putting out the full amperage and voltage that it's rated at and have all the battery connections and cables looked over to be sure they are capable of delivering all the current needed to run everything. I think you'll probably find the fix for most of the problems in that area. Hope this helps and good luck!
