12v plug in arm rest console

When I bought my truck in Feb, I was told there was no 12v (cig lighter) plug in newer vehicles. Just had my windows tinted yesterday and as I put all the crap back into my armrest compartment I felt a box/cover at the bottom. As I look closer, it’s a cover for the 12v plug, under the cover is said plug. First off I feel like an idiot that I didn’t look everywhere when I bought it but it leads me to a question. What use does it have being in the armrest compartment with only access to get the cord out is slamming lid on it?

The needle didn’t really move much on this saga. I think the powers at be have given up on this as the service department doesn’t have the skill and/or knowledge on how to fix it. The blame went to manufacturing for missing steps and shifted to salesmen need to verify the options before using as part of the sales pitch. She still claims that my build sheet says it has it but not much can be done now. She said she put in a request for an OTA patch to give me access to the app (working or not). Could take days to months. She says she will get back to me over time. Still love the truck 5000 miles later so I’m not overly upset. Definitely need to verify options before leaving the dealership but who knew to bring a flash drive. I didn’t even know about the record option until the salesman mentioned it.
