Can someone tell me what the two compartments in the rear (3rd row) area on the passenger side just below the vent window are? There seems to be a black nylon strap running through it?

Varied by market. The long one was for a scissor jack and tools, but I’m not sure the small one had a defined purpose. The 3rd row was installed when I bought my truck, and I found the anchor point covers hidden in the small compartment. I guess that’s a good use?
I keep a first aid kit in the small one, in this pouch that fits perfectly
And 2 of these fit perfectly in the long one, for ratchet straps and misc small stuff.
If anyone knows how to replace those stretched out elastic straps, speak up!

From what I read over the years on MUD, long one was storage for an optional reflective safety triangle. The small one is for a optional first aid kit.

Thanks for the information.
That’s where you keep your stash. Don't be tellin people….
Can confirm, mine has the OEM first aid kit.
The long one is good for a small recovery strap. I've had one there for 15 years. I think I've used it twice - neighborhood snow/ice rescues.
I fixed my straps with replacement elastic from Joann’s. Remove the entire panel and you’ll see how it attaches. If I recall correctly, the straps just fold and a fix to a card with staples. You’ll need to adjust the strap length to give you just the right amount of tension.
