Toyota built the 2015 Highlander around three separate engines - the 2.7L four (1AR-FE), the 3.5L V6 (2GRFE) and the hybrid version of that V6 (2GR-FXE) - and this factory service and repair manual is keyed to the exact year, engine and trim you are working on, so every clearance, torque value and step sequence in it is what Toyota specified for that build rather than a number carried over from an adjacent year or a different engine.

Known issues on the 2015 Highlander. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it falls under the electrical system: Fujian Wanda Automobile Glass Industry (Wanda) is recalling certain aftermarket replacement windshields sold for use in 2014-2018 Toyota Highlander vehicles, where damage to the ECM may result in the engine stalling, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 243 complaints for the year and Toyota has issued 135 technical service bulletins.
Whether you are tracing a stall back through the ECM and its wiring, servicing the hybrid system on a Hybrid Limited, or working to a maintenance interval on the 2.7L, it holds you to Toyota's own procedure and the right figure for this specific 2015 Highlander.
