I would say your best bet for a resource is ebay. I am sorry to say it sounds as if CEN doesn't have the manpower to support their Gen. It took my r/c shop here in KC 6 months to get them to give him a distributorship.

I think this truck is awesome but it does have issues - definitely not for a beginner. I'd say your options are to either wait for who knows how long for CEN support or get your parts off ebay and start wrenching. I replaced the steering servo, added a JR Pro radio and New Era aluminum cantilevers before I even broke mine in....

My first time out I snapped a cantilever link on my top shock but the thing ran like a beast even with Jumbo Kongs and had so much torque it spun a Kong off the rim and stripped the plastic wheel hex to a perfect circle - Awesome! Soooo much torgue.

Take it out and, bash it and find the weak links - this is a lot of horsepower and, just like real ones, lotsa HP means breakage - comes with the territory. Or, you could buy a Savage and be just like everyone else in the world....
