I have this Tramontina 3.2 fridge in my shop, it's only 3 years old and it has stopped cooling, I found a few Youtubes stating to check the relay at the compressor, which is a common failure. Now that I recall I have done this before on other dorm fridges. Does anyone else have any expertise in this area to share?

If the compressor is NOT Running then I would definitely suspect the Start Relay and they are only 3 -10 bux depending on where you get them .
Anything else you can buy another Fridge usually cheaper .

I tried a new overload protector and relay, the OP immediately smoked, I suspect the compressor bit the dust.
