When I drive up to 35-50 MPH, it sometimes goes into a short shake. The last two days it has been making a scraping sound in the front when I first pull off.

It helps if you can upload a short video of the noise so we can hear it, but I would say it will have a CV axle or a front brake pad issue. If you press on the brake pedal does the condition change? Also, if you steer the car around a corner does the vibration change? If so, it sounds like the CV axles are bad. here is a generic guide to help walk you through the steps and I have included instruction for your car in the images below so you can see how the repair is done in case you want to change the axle out yourself.

What happens is the CV axle wears out causing the CV joints to bind and vibrate. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.

Hi Ken L, I will try to do a video on the noise which started the past two days under abrupt sub-freezing weather. I took the car to a professional mechanic who jacked it up in the air and took a quick look at it then said that my rear, front and transmission mounts were busted. What do you think?

That would do it, I would do the engine mounts as well. Here is what the transmission mounts look like so you know what will need to be done. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
