Default My Fuel pump died today!

I got up this morning and washed/cleaned the C5 for about 3 hours and went on a nice cruise to get a window tinting quote... then... My 01 baby starts jerking, pulsing, and dropping oil pressure. It then stop running... I was able to restart and get it out of the street!!! :cry
I flatbedded the C5 to local shop and they ran diagnostics to find a dead fuel pump! I just had my fuel filter, injection, fuel system flushed by Chevy in FEB.
How much am I looking at for replacement work???
I have the extended 50000 miles warranty... my mileage is at 38000...
Any things I be aware of???
