The vehicle is a few hours away, my plan would definitely be to not leave their town until it's replaced.
Could any damage have occurred by waiting this long though? Or is it kind of unless it hasn't broken, it's not doing you any harm.
I'm buying a 2003 Limited V8 used with 144K. The seller seems like they have taken average or better care of it. They can't confirm if timing belt has been done though because the ex-husband was the one taking care of the car. I bought the carfax, no mention of it on there, but it does confirm...
