Any chance are you using a pre-programmed route in the unit when it freezes? If not, you can stop reading now.
If so, I've had my Zumo choke and die every time I loaded a particular route. I could view it in Preview mode, but loading it would cause the GPS to shut off. In preview mode I could see some bad anomalies in the route. The route was very corrupt. Fixing the route in City Navigator corrected the situation.
Sorry to hear you are having such a frustrating time. Garmin also sent me a replacement for my 665 in the last two weeks. The refurbished unit they sent works exactly the same as the one I sent back to them. No improvement in any way. It's annoying.
