1. Accessing the GPS will work for approx 5-10 seconds followed by a reset or lock-up.

Solution:
1. Depending on the radio, downgrading to 1.03.15 should solve it.
2. If already on 1.03.15 then return unit for replacement.

Interesting. I had upgraded my radio to 1.11. Got a little better reception but had horrible battery issues and my GPS freaked out as stated above. I downgraded to 1.03 and everything is normal again.
