Anyone have issues with crashing?

Anyone have issues with their Garmin crashing? Here are a few cases

  • Whenever I ride to 60 ish miles my Edge 1040 crashes and restarts. Luckily the route restores, but sometimes it loses a couple miles, that's annoying. Happened to me 2x already.
  • Sometimes when I plug my Edge 1040 in, the device freezes and the only way to get it to function again is to hold down the power button for like 10 seconds.
  • Sometimes when I do a map update, once the update is done and it tries to load the map, but it sits there forever. I have to restart the Edge 1040.

I had crashing issues on the Edge 1030 as well. I would honestly think that the flagship devices from Garmin wouldn't have all these issues.

    I had sudden crashes/reboots during an activity with 1030+ before, and now having with 1040, but very rarely. 

    I raised it in another topic for 540, it seems Garmin is willing to look into that in more detail - forums.garmin.com/.../edge-540---25-24---so-now-it-reboots-during-activity-and-loses-track

I have also one time when a ride suddenly get stuck and odometer not counting but the speed was 7 kmph. also when i was stop riding. Also here i reboot device

    I haven't had crashes, but I've had freezes. First time I'm seeing freezes on the 1040, and I've had it for over 2 years. The freezes happen seemingly randomly, when I switch to the map screen, or when I hit the lap button, or when I stop a ride and try to save it. The device eventually comes to its senses 5-10 seconds later, but it's annoying to say the least. Not sure when this all started, probably after the upgrade to v24.55, but it has continued in v25.24.
