Hi everyone - please use the following mitigation plan for this issue while we work with Lenovo to uncover more of the root cause/solution to this: Lenovo Yoga L13 might shut down during Teams meetings (microsoft.com).

We have the same problem in our organisation with a ThinkPad L13 Yoga (Type 20R5-000HMH).
The computer shuts down unexpectedly when starting a Microsoft Teams video call. It doesn't happen every time, though. Also, it happened a couple of times using a Skype video call.
Recently we've got this PC back from a service centre where its touchscreen got replaced after an accident. The problems started after the repair. Initially, I thought this was some kind of hardware problem unique to our PC but now I know that other people have the same issue. Probably just a coincidence for us since the laptop got shelved for a few months and probably received some "ugly" software updates during the repair.
Thanks everyone for reporting this.
To make sure I understand, this is not an application crashing issue, the machine actually bugchecks and throws an error message and forces a reboot?
If you go into Control Panel / System and Security / Security and Maintenance / Reliability Monitor
What kinds of failures do you see there, also do you see any event ids, 1000, 1001, 10000, 10001
If you see an event id 1001 in the Applicaiton Event Log, and it is for Teams.exe can you share something like this:
Report Id: 64108566-BDB3-4C01-9DFA-3AC17EE62D70
Report Status: 268435464
Hashed bucket: c203fc7c6437bafb1030ff27934493fe
If it is a bugcheck you will see an entry like this:
The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck was: 0x

bwilson The machine does not trows an error. It just power off. I do not see any error in Aplication log. In Reliability monitor are only mesages over unexpected shutdown.
I have Teams app uninstalled and installed again. It seems that I have newer version and I hope that this issue is solved.
- bwilsonFeb 19, 2021MicrosoftThank you for letting me know Samir. We regret this is happening and we are looking into it.

Does anyone see any event logs in the Windows\Systems log about Kernel Power events?
For example something like this:
Windows Logs\Systems Kernel power 86 The system was shut down due to a critical thermal event
