As I was waiting to get on the freeway I heard a thump like the vehicle shifted out of gear. Luckily we were in traffic and crawling and the Toyota dealership was 3 exits up when I hit 30 mph my rpm's were at 4000. Waiting to hear today. My platinum only has 1600 miles on it.

This will be a good thread to watch for hybrid owners and future owners. Fingers crossed its a simple, fast and reliable fix.

I really wanted the hybrid when I started looking at Toyota for the first time. Sequoya, Grand Highlander then I settled on a non-hybrid 4Runner. I guess it’s less stuff to fail. Lets hope this is a one off issue.

My friend just had this happen yesterday. He picked up his BRAND NEW 2025 4Runner (Hybrid option) from Greens Toyota in Lexington, KY. On the way home, all dash lights came on and the “Hybrid System Failure” came on. Said he also heard a loud sound right before. It had 39 miles on the car. Had it towed and is currently driving a rental, waiting for further notice.
