Good morning - bride had routine service yesterday with our trusted mechanic. He reports "minor water pump leak/seeping. Not close to 100k yet. I really like pastrami!
Seriously, should I be suggesting to the dealer that maybe this one should be changed under warranty before it blows up like the last one?

YES !!! Seeping is NOT going to get better or heal !!!

If dealer won't do under warranty, and you aren't able to do this yourself, I'd take to an independent ASE-certified mechanic shop and get it done.

I've had water pump seepage on two vehicles - noticed during my routine look-see before a trip, and I changed those both before I departed, knew it wasn't going to get better by itself.
