Or on the other hand I bet there isn't one statement in either the owner's manual nor the warranty booklet that says deviating from the recommended grade will void the warranty. In fact doesn't it say:

"An oil with a higher viscosity (one with a higher value) may be better suited if the vehicle is operated at high speeds, or under extreme load conditions"

Owner just has to state they thought the loads were extreme.

Correct on the wording in the manual, plus Toyota specifies up to 20w50 elsewhere in the world for this very same engine, so 0w-40 is a good choice.

You are under new car warranty correct? Toyota specs that engine for 0W-20. 0W-40 might give you a problem if you have a warranty claim on the engine. New car oil change interval for the 2019 4Runner is 10k. You ran it to 11K? Something here doesn't make any sense. I also own a 2019 4Runner. I changed the oil and cartridge filter (first change) at 3,500 mi. 2nd change I used Mobil 1 Extended Performance 0w20. Third change is coming up at 10k, dealer will do that one free (new vehicles get 2 free changes at 10k and 20k. How many miles are on your 2019 4Runner?

Why would that be?
