Maybe the bolts that hold the starter in place (particuliary the top which has a nut) has worked their 
way loose and the starter is simply cocked a little and that is causing the Bendix Drive to not 
disengage. If they can reach back in there and wiggle the starter then that may be it. 
The easiest bolt to get to is the bottom bolt and if it is loose, they may be able to tighten it enough 
to straighten out the starter and then check it every couple of days. 
The top nut is very hard to get to with the alternator in place and you most likely need and obstruction 
wrench previously mention in other listserve messages.
