Question ❔ Recalls inspected but “no repair needed”

Is it normal to have recalls and then have the dealer decide they not need repaired?

This week I took my ‘26 F150 & ‘17 Mustang GT to the dealer for recalls. I bought the truck last month and got a recall notice for the fuel tank strap maybe two weeks later. The mustang has had two recalls that were probably 2-3 years old atp. One for the “Front Seat Belt Anchor Pre-tensioner Cables” the other for the rear view camera image (which imo should have qualified for the repair because the quality is shit.)
I brought them in on separate days, the truck was ready after 30 minutes but was quoted an hour on it (probably because it’s new new)
When I dropped the Mustang off they said it was likely not going to be ready until the next day due to the recalls it had. But then after only two hours I received an inspection report saying it needed a new oil pan and oil change paired with a heavy estimate of course, but that the recalls did not need repaired.

Idk I’m just apprehensive because in the past when I had recalls on my non ford vehicles the dealers did the remedies just because the vins were included so I thought that was standard practice?

This is my first ever truck, currently has 77k miles with the 5.0

Im looking to do some mods on it but unsure what kind.

Ive been looking into a lift/ levle kit to put a slightly bigger tire on it, and maybe a tune to remove the rev limiter

If anyone has suggestions I'd love to hear them

My mirror is stuck in this position right here and i've tried moving it with the buttons and it'll give me a little wiggle but not love completely. How can I fix this?
