ESP Fault / Extremely Rough Idle
Driving @ 30, after braking it says ESP Fault in the center information panel, and gives EXTREMELY rough idle/vibrations during any engine rpm while still or driving.
I'm guessing its the coil pack recall? Or something else?

If your Engine light is on and it idles rough, it's quite likely the coil pack recall issue. I just went through that with my 05 4.2L. I believe getting the Check Engine light automatically turns off ESP.. it did in my case. How many miles do you have on your car?
Edit: You don't actually say wether your Engine light is on or not. It may actually be a stuck Intake Manifold Flap or a faulty flap motor. My cousin just went through that with his 04 C6 3.2L in Europe.

Is this recall in Canada as well, just in case my dealer tries to rip me off? I've got about 50K

Update: Got all the coils replaced, thanks for the replies everyone.
However I lost my tow cap during the tow, which sucks because its costing me $70 painted for little piece
