That's a real bummer! I mean it's good that you're still under warranty, but being without your truck and not having any idea when it might be back in service is a real dilemma, especially right off the bat into a new business venture.
I know it's not reassuring, but I've heard some horrific stories about long waits for repairs over the last year or two. If it was me, I would plan it as if your truck is going to be out of commission for months, not days or weeks. If that means going back to your previous driving job, or even picking up another one that would probably be preferrable to waiting it out and having bills pile up without income. At least the job market is still at a point where that's possible in most areas.
