They also inspect the switch and replace it if it's leaking, along with the harness install. That may take a little longer.

Depending on how hard it is to get to, the vans may take more time than the pickups.

Yup, a friend's dad had two F250's (a 1995 and 1999) that got the recall. I took a gander at the said "fix". Saw the tag and says not to replace the fuses if it blows but to install some a replacement (under a Ford part number).
