Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Is this a hardware or software issue?

Thank you for your help.

if you can make it enter monitor mode you can try to reimage the device. If you can do that it might solve your problem.

If you want to find the cause of the issue I suggest you to open a TAC case so that they can decode the crash file.
