Bad passenger side cat - GM just extended the stock cat warranty to 10 years/120K. If you didn't get the letter I've got a link here somewhere.

Up to you, the warranty fix is free. No emissions here, when I get around to LTs not going to bother with cats.

none. As long as it is original equipment they should take care of it.

I have the same light. Will they fix it even though I have a cut-out?

Gentlemen, check your o2 Sensor first. Chances are it's the sensor that's failing. I'd go ahead and put a cat-less Y pipe on there, because eventually the cat will deteriorate and stop up. Just remove the cats and you won't have that problem.

Guys I just got all of my cats replaced under that warranty from GM. I brought it to my local GM dealer and they took care of me and sent the bill to GM afterwards. I was so happy.
