Default Water pump or pulley going bad

I had my 2004 chrysler crossfire coupe for about 10 months now it has 133,000 miles on it now when I got it it had 120,500 miles so far I've changed the Alternator and one turning signal but the other day I noticed a squeking noise coming from under the hood so I pop the hood and noticed my water pump pulley wobbling so now I'm trying to figure out if I need to buy a new pulley or a whole new water pump it's not running hot or leaking coolant thank God for that since then I'm afraid to drive it

You need a water pump.

I'd just let it go and not worry about it. The adventure of being towed is a lot of fun, so dont fix it, let it go till it breaks down on you.
Then take it to a Chrysler dealer where they will screw around for a day or two and finally fix it - and bill you a good $850 to $1000.

(Or more, for the imaginary bad steering linkage you have...)

Mark ( pizzaguy ) was of course pulling your leg
I's not a bad DIY, might as well take the opportunity to change the coolant with fresh Zerex G05 with 50/50 distilled water.
