I have the same problem on my xbox one... This happens throughout my entire game. Anytime I switch tasks or try to save and then my game just shuts off... I fixed it once by uninstalling my game and every expansion pack. It fixed it but I lost all my saved stuff. I really don't wanna loose all my saves again. I'm halfway through unlocking all of the aspirations, which some were very time consuming, There's gotta be a better way... My game was playing fine after reinstalling everything until the last update. Seems this happens any time they do an update. Very frustrating!!!
