Is a water pump covered under the powertrain warranty from Chevy?

My new Chevy hasn’t been in my driveway for more than a week, but it’s leaking a puddle of weird liquid. It doesn’t look like oil, so I think it must be coolant from the water pump. Does the Chevy powertrain warranty cover a water pump?

A leaking water pump isn’t one of the more
common Chevrolet problems
, but that doesn’t rule out the possibility! Luckily, your water pump should be covered under the powertrain warranty from Chevy so long as it’s due to a manufacturer defect.
Water pumps are included in the Chevy powertrain warranty because they are an essential component for the powertrain’s function. Take your car into a Chevy service center as soon as possible to get it diagnosed and to confirm that your warranty will cover it.
Hopefully, your water pump will be taken care of, but you should still set aside savings for emergency repairs that aren’t covered under your warranty. Free up room in your budget by taking a second look at your
