Default Hybrid reliability

So far mine hasn't been very reliable. I was driving for about 20 minutes yesterday when all of a sudden, the "High Motor Temperature" warning came on. Normally I'd stop, but there really aren't a lot of places to stop on a So Cal highway. So the engine cut off and i was able to pull off to the shoulder. The next day, I took it into the dealer and they determined that the electronic(or electric) coolant pump was not functioning and it might take days to locate a part. days!!??
Only 5500 miles on the car. Also the "check turn lamps" keep coming on.
Anyone else have reliability issues?
