Well, tell you what and I hope this helps: my first internship required 3.0 gpa. Mine that semester was 2.98 (exactly like yours). Not only did I interview and get the internship, I have been with that company ever since 2013 and haven't had any performance review below "exceeded expectations" ever since I started.

Moral of the story is: the gpa will only be a big deal if you make it so. Your perception will be your reality and you will lose out on a fantastic opportunity to start your career on the right foot. Call your recruiter, make your case, have a great internship.

Side Note: I graduated with a 3.4. Had to work my butt off to raise it up and get the offer and I did.
