Let's hope there is was no damage done before they replaced the drain plug and oil filter. I am concerned by your statement, " My car had laggy throttle response and was shaking moderately, temperature gauges were in the 300+, usually 180-220". How many miles away from the dealer did you drive before having it towed? Just curious.

I would keep an eye on everything for the foreseeable future. Hopefully nothing happened internally and that there was no damage done to the rings or bearings. I would even get the oil changed again in a few hundred miles (at another place or do it yourself) to see how clean the oil is. Check for any metal shavings or other particles. If clean, then you should be OK. Anything less than clean oil, I'd be back at the dealers asking them what are they going to do about it...
