Is it possible to start the vehicle and drive it back 2.1miles to the dealership where it was purchased? I'd like to return it. Can I bypass it long enough to get there? It's a lemon and apparently has been on fire at some point and someone cosmetically fixed it to run just long enough to sale it. Unfortunately, I already replaced the starter and water pump before discovering the burnt wiring harnesses. Thank you for your help.

Sure, you can still drive the car, but the ABS system will not work so keep that in mind. Does the car not run or? The ABS system is a safety device so if you don't want to drive it without it you should have it towed.
