John,

It looks like it's happened to a few others on here and after turning the truck off then back on it's never happened again. I'd give it a couple days to see if it happens again or if you have a scan gauge scan it for a code.

Never had the check 4x4 pop up but to AZs point, I had blind spot monitor failure notifications pop up one morning. Turned the trunk off, back on and it was still there, but then 10 minutes into my drive they just went away and I've never had an issue since

These things do tend to happen... weirdly

Maybe try this, can't hurt:
With the old school automatic hubs, you had to put the truck in neutral or park, then back up 10-12 ft (3 revs of the front wheels) in 2WD reverse to fully release the hubs.
