Happened 3 times in 3 months that while driving, display "reboots" and goes from 80+ miles to less than 10 miles.
After power cycle, everything seems normal again.
Had the dealer read the codes 3 times.
Today they said they ordered a new computer, normally $4000 but will be exchanged under warranty
PS: this is on my former rav4ev that I sold.

Was your car still under warranty when they replaced it? Did you have extended warranty on it?
It was repaired under warranty.
Then I sold a week before turning 3 year old and within 36k miles.
New owner bought extended warranty.
I had the cabin heater & l1/l2 charger replaced about a month before I sold it, under warranty.
The heating unit was (again) replaced about a year later under extended warranty.
Last week he had the motor unit replaced (under warranty) because of the noise in the bearing (second motor change)
50k miles now.

If I would have known what I know now, I would not have sold my rav4ev to a friend.
