Hey all. I'm on a 16" MBP with the 8-core and 32GB ram. Yesterday, I got a notification that I needed to unplug my USB hub because it was drawing too much power (only powering a 1080 24" monitor and an external hard drive), and I had power delivery running through it. I unplugged it and left work as it was the end of the day.

Now, coming in this morning, my hub wasn't working. I tried plugging directly into the machine, and nothing. Power doesn't work, nor my monitor/external drive. They all work fine when plugged into the left side ports, but nothing on the right. I've done an SMC and PRAM reset, but that hasn't changed anything. On 10.15.6. I've got a call in with Apple Support, but wanted to see if anyone here has any ideas?
 
Good to know I am not the only one who faced the issue with the 16" rMBP. Had to submit my machine to the service center back in June for this problem. They ended up replacing the entire logic board + I/O board. The issue happened again after a month. Apple kept the machine for over a month and it was only yesterday they offered me a full refund due to the delay in repairing the machine :\
