Just in case anyone has not gotten a notice...
I just recieved a recall. Wiring harness on the floor might wear through and cause mirror/cab marker lights not work OR airbags might deploy for no reasonhttp://www.dieselplace.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif
Keep an eye out in the mail for it...

05035 - Body Wiring Harness Chafing 2003-2005 Chevrolet Kodiak
2003-2005 GMC TopKick
Equipped with Air Bags (RPO AJ3 or AK5)
Condition
General Motors has decided that a defect, which relates to motor vehicle safety, exists in certain 2003-2005 Chevrolet Kodiak and GMC TopKick vehicles equipped with air bags (RPO AJ3 or AK5). On some of these vehicles, the wiring harness that is routed under the floor mat in the driver’s foot area may become damaged with repeated entering and exiting of the vehicle. If damage were to occur to the harness, the roof marker lights and dome lamp may become inoperative, the airbag warning light may illuminate, and there may be a driver or passenger unwanted airbag deployment while the vehicle is stationary or moving. An occupant that is too close to an inflating airbag could be seriously injured.
Correction
Dealers are to install a protective sleeve around the harness and repair any damage to the harness.
Vehicles Involved
Involved are certain 2003-2005 Chevrolet Kodiak and GMC TopKick vehicles equipped with air bags (RPO AJ3 or AK5) built within these VIN breakpoints:

this involves inspecting the harness for wear/abrasion and then fitting 18" of 1/2" corrogated wire loom over harness and taping in place. takes 5min.
