I recently was in an accident with my box and have since had it repaired. However, when I went to my body shop to pick her up I noticed right away that there was something wrong. At low RPM such as idle speed, it feels like the motor is going to shake itself right off the car. So I took it out for a drive and it seems that once I get it up to 3000-4000 RPM it goes away. Any ideas?

I say let the dealer inspect what the body shop did and determine if it was repaired correctly or not. It may have nothing to do with the wreck.

My body shop brought it in to the dealer today and I haven't heard anything yet. I was just checking to see if anybody out there may have some info on what it could be. Thanks.

Oh no, You left it at the bodyshop??? I'd call the dealer ASAP and have them keep you up to date before they do anything. That is the strangest thing I have ever heard of. A bodyshop taking a customers car to the dealership. Something sounds fishy to me. They are not supposed to do things like that especially without your permission.
