That recall was announced last Sept. There were a couple threads on it around that time:

If the clip has not fractured they will place a clamshell over it to relieve the stress on it. If it is showing stress cracks they will replace the shifter cable with the new clip design.

I'm taking my '08 to the shop at 1:00 pm today. I hope it doesn't take too long.

Mine was done in 15 min.
