Took out the front center rubber cup holder mat to clean and found a round access panel underneath the left cup holder... a 1/2" drive extension end looked liked it would fit into the square hole but was slightly too large...anyone know what's behind that panel? (Took a pic but not able to upload it)

It's actually the manual release for the parking break in the event of failure. The owners manual describes fully. The red handle tool is located in spare tire well

there should be a big orange plastic wrench under trunk floor, where you have tool kit.
As v8888vx6 stated it's for when you need to tow the car , so tow guy can unlock trans.
