Take it to a different dealer. This was a known issue that happens on stock vehicles as well as modified ones. You could bring up Magnuson-Moss Act, but check around with other dealers in (or out of) your area till you find one thats willing to work with you. They are out there.

Even this supercharger replacement, again overplayed! All's you need is a replacement isolater for craps sake.
These motors have more then prove themselves, moding them just takes an already awesome engine to a higher level of awesomeness.
That's how I see it anyways.

Part of the reason for replacing the entire supercharger is that it is an assembled unit from Eaton, not GM. and I would be willing to bet that their warranty/coverage is such that they pull the entire unit to send to Eaton for work/repair/inspection instead of letting GM do the work.
It covers GM's ass in the event that something gets damaged by GM during repairs.

This whole process of chasing up and then ending not having the ZL1 ready for my holiday has really put me off dealing with any GM products, their customer support people are useless. I now raised a complain to get GM to buy my car back as it been out of service for over 30 days with in the warrant period, and as much i love the car i can't deal with a company that doesn't care for their customers. I would hate to see how long it takes them to fix an issue that isn't well known.

Don't blame GM for a crappy dealer. I do agree with you for pushing to get them to buy back your car, just gotta make sure you are complaining enough to the right people.
I would imagine the dealership will do what they can to prevent them having to buy it back, so go around them.
