Yikes. I bought my 2006 FPR Slingshot Yellow SSR in 2014. It had 1500 miles on it. Before completing the buy, I had the local GM dealer in Bozeman, Montana conduct an examination of the vehicle. All good except the water pump was leaking. The seller had it replaced and my beautiful new machine arrived in California within a few days. So happy.
Fast forward to 2015, when I took my SSR into our local GM dealer here in Indio, California for an oil change at 2848 miles. Hmmm. Water pump is leaking. Replaced under warranty so I was only asked to pay for the labor at $270. Fast forward again to this week and another oil change and once again, the water pump is leaking at 5098 miles! This time, the labor is $570 and the part may be replaced under warranty. What is going on? Help.
My other SSR (2005 Aqua Blur with 28000 miles located in Alberta, Canada) has never had a water pump issue.
Suggestions? Cautions?
I am not thread smart so hopefully, I have done this correctly.
