My shift knob literally exploded on me once. I put it into park and the whole assembly just shot in directions. Screw probably just came loose and came out.

its possible if they left the car in netural then it broke and then he slapped it into drive after he started it cuz reverse u cant jsut slap it into reverse its kinda hard without breaking the shifter on the trans so yeah its possible the way i jsut said

Well since it occured when the car was in their hands and such problem did not exist prior to taking it in, it is their problem now. They owe you a fix.
