Dealer shows no open recalls for my vin. Is there anyway for me to verify it was accomplished?

I have an appointment for next week.

Because not every valve cover was defective. There was a population within the specified build date range that were susceptible to a PCV manufacturing defect, which caused the oil consumption issue.

I checked this morning, a tad above low mark. Oil change at 27.7k mi and I'm around 28.7k mileage now.
Lol ok, now I'm really confused. I took the truck for a top off yesterday and the oil level was full.

I check the levels just now, after sitting for 5-6 hrs, and I'm full.

I took one of the low readings in the same parking lot and it's level. I'm stumped lol.

I'm still waiting on my warranty history request.
