I recently bought 2595. I am experiencing freezing issues on this unit. It freezes while on navigation mode.
I have to press power button for long time to shut it down. It is a hassle while you are driving on highway. I had to pull on the next exit and reset it. Anyone else having same issues on this model? I will appreciate your feedback.
have you
checked for updates?

This happened to us once this week.
Unusual. The unit has been fairly stable.

It has latest updates because I just installed new maps couple of weeks ago.

Exchange
If you're still within the return/exchange time frame, I'd back up the unit in Garmin Express and exchange it for a new one.
I also recently bought a 2595LMT, so far no problems with mine except I would need to unplug and replug the power cord for the traffic receiver to get recognized.

I bought it from Costco
I bought it from Costco Canada. I will probably return this unit and get a new one.

Don't use garmin express to back it up

FYI: Garmin express does not back everything up. I believe it will get the "favorites" folder, but for a complete system backup you need to copy everything from the nuvi after setting windows to "view all".
We have a tutorial on that. http://www.poi-factory.com/node/30394
