This is the 3rd electrical issue I've had to deal with since leasing this vehicle new in July 2016. First was the Android Play system, just stopped working one day. The dealer finally determined that the system had to be reset to factory default. Second, the battery died and would not recharge at 35,000 miles. Lastly is this issue I'm reporting. The 12V power socket that I rely on to run my power inverter just failed, stopped giving power. I checked and the dealer also checked the 20Amp fuse under the dash, the power relay. Both good. Cannot access the plug rear to take out and replace due to console being right up against the inner firewall. Dealer determined that the plug just failed and has to be replaced. Cost $250!!. I need this socket to work because it is the only one. Got me by the balls.
