Default Truck left in 4 WD....now what?

I have a 2017 Silverado 4 x 4.
I used 4 WD late one day to pull a trailer up a steep hill and then forgot to take it out.
The next day I towed the trailer on the interstate for about 100 miles before realizing the mistake.
Is there a built-in safety feature in these trucks that recognize this and overrides the mistake? If not, what should I expect as a result?

thx.

I think you will be okay. It was only one time. I don't believe there is a feature that overrides the 4-wheel-drive. I would not worry about it.
