I found it....it's not a recall notice but a class action lawsuit claim.
 
2003-2005 GMT800 platforms.
Extends warranty on dash panel
within 7 years when vehicle was placed in service or 70,000 miles,whicever first,
condition will be repaired at no charge.
 
If you paid to have fixed, you can get reimbursed for parts and labor.
Between 70k and 80k miles, reimbursement for parts only.
 
Over 80k, you're screwed.
 
Reimbursement number 1-800-204-0261 have your VIN
 
Multi District Litigation number 1896.....and I guess it's in a Detroit court.
 
Hope this helps

Class action lawsuit. Now it makes sense as I couldn't find it listed anywhere.

Well, that worked out well They wanted me to hand out 3 hours of labor to look into the issue at$91.00 a hour.. sorry, I told them to correct the recalls and pack it up I am not going to give away 300.00 and not even know if it could be fixed..

$91.00 isn't that bad our local Chevy dealer charges $130.00 an hour for factory certified technicians. Course the labor comes way down if you do the diagnoses for them.

The problem is that there is no guarantee that they find the problem ans you still pay the fees.. I just hesitate to hand out $$$ and then they replace something like the cluster (which I heard is about 300.00 itself). so I was looking at a $600.00 charge.. I'll wait until I hear a good solution or maybe find someone who could just replace it aftermarket so I get charged a lower fee.
