driver displays shutdown while driving

[huck]

It happened twice on a trip from Portland, OR to Vancouver BC. We abandoned the trip after the second failure. the displays go black, and neither of the resets fix the problem. The displays eventually reboot after 30 to 40 minutes.

Rivian took the vehicle, did diagnostics, and determined that it was a cooling issue, and they replaced a cooling valve.

On the first long distance trip after the repair, it failed again. This time at the end of a DC fast charge. The displays again came back after 40 minutes or so.

It definitely seems like a cooling issue. And I wonder if we are doing long term damage to the life of the batteries?

We have another scheduled service with Rivian in March. I will update when I have more info on this problem.

The compute assemblies on these vehicles are liquid cooled, so the valve they replaced was likely the one leading to or away from one of these units, also the screens in the R1's are powered by the 12v system not the main vehicle battery pack, so the status of the main battery should not affect the operation of the screens.

This is the first mention I have seen on any of the forums about screens going dead consistently, so hopefully its an easy fix. What is the VIN range for your R1T?
