    It was 7 degrees this morning and when I started my car it said “check hybrid system stop vehicle in a safe place. It did this once before and the dealership couldn’t find anything wrong with it. They are telling me to have it towed in again. Anyone else with this issue?

    Does it start up and drive ok? If so I'd be inclined to just drive it to them. They should check for codes, and at the least inform you what they get. You could post the codes here.

    It seems like anything and everything can trigger "check hybrid system" btw. Even just a momentary loss of signal in some sensor.
