    Finally took the truck in for the TSB and to address the steering wheel issue.

    Dealer said they haven't seen this happen before. They're going to submit it to the GM and order me a new wheel.

    Looks to be a material defect.

    Will keep everyone posted!

    @bluezzy and @TegoTaco -- did y'all get the Medium size? Is it still holding up OK? My original - '05 - is peeling and I'm looking at options. Thanks!!

    Do you recall which one you actually bought?
    Yours seems to fit and hold up very well.
