Getting one from Chevrolet when you're out of warranty is going to be tough, you'll need to prove previous issues. My suggestion would be to get a new stock or maybe 10% underdrive from ATI, they're right in Woodlawn. If your mechanical, you can do it yourself, I did it during a heads/cam swap and it's worth it not to worry about any more issues with balancer.

Contact corporate headquarters and make a complaint that way. Look at my previous posts. Mine was changed twice before 10K miles. It's a part failure and they should at least offer a free part and discounted repair but you should ask for full repair.

ATI or powerbond, do not install a OEm balancer or you will be replacing it again.
