Canada major water pump failure

71000 km for my 2008 . Water pump is about to have MAJOR damage (pulley moves a lot when I move with hands.). Also very noisy at idle .

I want to know if the water pump is cover by the engine/transmission waranty (100k km/5 years) ?

Water pump is a powertrain warranty item.

Do you have any coolant left? Usually by the time the shaft is loose, the seal is so bad that all fluid will leak out once the system is at full pressure.

There is little leak of coolant , not that much . There is a splash of coolant behind the pump. It's very impressive how the saft is loose.
