Mine didn't make the list. Went to safercar.gov/vin and it showed 0 open recalls.

Probably not updated yet. My 03 GT shows zero recalls also, so I'll check it again in a week or so.

Nope, nothing yet.

Still showing as REMEDY NOT AVAILABLE on the GM recall site here... So if I did get a notice it would only tell me my car is still a ticking time bomb for the foreseeable future while I wait for them to obtain parts.
