The last time I had any service done at SSI Halifax, they performed repairs that I did not ask them to do, and felt very over charged. I have never been pleased by their service department. Since then I have been going to H.A.R.D. on Duffus St. corner of Acricola. Martin seems to really know his way around my '96 900 S turbo. H.A.R.D. has recently changed it's name to Duffus Street Auto Centre. For any future service, I would recommend that your father go there and request that Martin do the work. As for your current situation, I wish you and your father the best, and hope that your letter does not fall on deaf ears.
I seem to remember that your father's car went in the SSI Halifax the same day that my car started acting up, and not starting. We had very similar symptoms. Martin rebuilt my starter the next day for $199 plus $50 labour. I'm sure that if I had taken my car to SSI Halifax, they would have replaced the starter for $650 plus at least $70 labour. By the time you add taxes, that's a more than $500 difference for the same end result. SSI Halifax is not interested in repairing cars or parts, they are interested in replacing cars or parts.
