I have the same problem on my rear passenger. Noticed it at like 2,500 miles.

I don’t think I’ll have any issues having the dealer fix this issue for me, but it’s such a small problem it almost doesn’t warrant a trip to the dealer just for that. Will be stopping by the dealer tomorrow morning.
Oh wow I did not know that. How do u swap it out. I heard u have to take handle off to get to stationary block tht I’m having paint issue with to swap it out

Open the door and you'll see a rubber cap leveled with the handle. You unscrew the screw(sorry, don't remember the torx size) while pulling on the door lock until it comes out, That's it!
The door lock cap is held by some clips, Just pry it open and reverse the procedure to install it back on the door.
BTW, the door handle can be slid out while the door lock cylinder assembly is out. Very easy process!

I was in for an oil change on Tuesday and showed them this. Not sure how it would have happened, but they said I would have to fix it. There is literally no paint on that section on the bottom of the key hole.

You open the door and on the inside of it, at the same height of the handle, you will find a rubber/plastic cap.
Remove it off and unscrew the screw while you jiggle the lock cylinder. Keep unscrewing until the lock comes out.(It takes a few turns... keep turning it)
The lock cap sits on it with clips, take the old one off and clip the new one on. That's it... very easy.
btw, if you want to remove the handle, you just need to slide it towards the back of the truck when the lock is out.
Edit: I just noticed i explained it a few posts back:
Paint issues on drivers door lock cover
Noticed this after getting back from a 3500km trip. Didn’t have anything hit the truck other than some heavy rain and wind. Back to the dealer I go.
