They probably took the cable off of the transmission so they could move the shift mechanisim out of park. Then, when they put the cable back on, they probably didn't get it adjusted properly.

That's my best guess.

You sure it's not more of a vibration, or a rattle? Cuz if they just unhooked the selector, it wouldn't grind, unless they gorilla torqued on it to find neutral.

Well, I'd make them fix it, but that's just me.

The easy way is to look and see where the bolt was before. There will be a mark or a clean spot, loosen it up, line it up and tighten it down in that spot. That's probably all you need to do, unless there is other damage or something has been damaged by driving it while out of adjustment.
