Relax open hood check the oil level on oil dipstick.

That's the DIC. Not a TSB. a TSB is issued from a dealer. Alot of LS3s had oil pump issues. It could mean your low on oil but its a message about oil pressure. Not low oil level. If its under warranty still call the dealer get it towed in. Don't drive it.

OH ok. Thanks.. this BLOWS.

Just call the dealer first thing in the AM. Its not a huge repair. It's a common issue. Have you checked the oil level?? Any mods??

No mods; Oil is Okay, just put a quart in it just to be sure. I will have it looked at tomorrow.

Well if it was ok don't add any. Overfilled is just as bad as not enough.

This is true.... If you have a friend who is more mechanically inclined than you get them to check don't drive or crank car until you are certain that's its not overfilled.

You may have to drain some out if its overfilled and by reading your post its not at least as likely as not that you are qualified to do so.

Yes, TSB is Technical Service Bulletin

I thought that the car alerted the owner to one; that would have been cool

How many miles. How long was it running?? I hope the motor is ok. If you hear a clanking noise I hope the rod bearings aren't spun.
