The local dealer is 10 miles away. Should I drive or have it towed? I can get there without getting on the freeway.
I've don't even have 2 months of ownership on this ride.

Hybrid system failed - "System Malfunction Visit Your Dealer"
Toyota Care should cover the tow which is probably the safer option. I drove with hazards on cause my dealer was only 2-3 miles away. Depends on your comfort level.
Mine failed after 2 weeks of ownership 🥲

That's scary that they didn't even try to find a cause. What if we are making a turn on a mountain pass and it shuts off and the steering wheel couldn't return back to center...
I know, kinda crazy for a brand that’s known for reliability... I’m always going to be wondering when the next failure will be and if it’ll happen on a road trip or in the mountains.
@a_double any updates from the dealer?
The service manager said they looked at it today, got a foreman involved, whatever that means, hopefully a senior tech, and need it for another day. I asked for scans/diagnostics but he said the tech/foreman hasn’t shared it with him yet.
Hello. New here after picking up my 26 Limited. Following this thread…If I were in your position, I’d have it towed and make a helluva scene of it! Lol, kidding but man, seriously frustrating.
Hybrid or not. Anything can happen to any vehicle as all new gens have kinks. Lastly it wouldn’t hinder me from buying a Hybrid 4Runner.
