I brought my car to the dealer to check out why I had a small leak on the floor of my garage. They said my water pump had a leak in it. I wanted to know if I could drive it for a few more days until my husband came back into town, so he could decide what to do. I have not noticed any other problems, just the small leak.

You probably can drive it for VERY short trips. Always check your coolant reservoir level before you drive, making sure that it is full. While you are driving, keep an eye on the temperature gauge. If it goes 3/4, immediately pull over and shut off the engine. Let it cool down.
