Machine is < 2 months old. I was having issues with system crashes and freezes which I posted in the macOS forum. I thought it was due to some software I had loaded, but it turned out to be hardware issue.

It took several calls to Apple and then a visit to the local store to figure out the problem (2 days of trying various things and then 2 days to get an appointment at the local store). The machine is currently with Apple (local store sent it to Austin) and they are replacing the system board.

Anyone else experience this type of failure? First time I have ever experienced something like this on a new laptop.
