Are you able to do mechanic work on her Flex? Or will you be having a shop do the work no matter what that work ends up being?
I am hesitant to say the water pump bearing is toast just yet.
The dripping oil is a high concern, was the oil and filter changed recently?
If so, who did it? They could have left the seal from the previous filter on there and that is why it is leaking, but I highly doubt it.
I hate to say it, but IF it does turn out the water pump needs replacing, it will be down for at least 4 days, and that depends on if your shop has time and the parts available.
