I've loaded up an old save and have been able to progress without seeing the bug so far by ignoring the quests Firefighters, Contagion, and Life On The Frontier. I believe the bug to be caused by one of these quests.
I'll report back later whether or not I hit the bug by completing one of these quests, or if I am able to avoid it altogether.
Just finished Life On The Frontier (the Kadara quest you get from Sid) and no crashing thus far. So it wasn't that one.
Perhaps it has more to do with something in the order of the quests, or which ones are open simultaneously. No way of knowing I suppose. Hopefully the dev team can handle this and patch it.
Please help me. I have the same problem.

Unfortunately the only proven solution as of yet is to go back to an older save prior to the bug occurring. I did this and lost 20 hours but haven't seen the bug pop up again. I still believe the Contagion or Firefighters quest has something to do with it so I've been avoiding those two.
There are also reports that going offline and finishing "search for the archon" quest hepled as well. So you d better do that too, just to be sure. But you will need save file before arriving to the nexus anyway.

So, this looks like the same bug, folks there are saying that:
"I read on another thread that doing the Chasing the Archon quest BEFORE returning to the Nexus will resolve this bug so I tried it. Miraculously, it worked. However, I had to reload to an autosave point to when I first docked on the Nexus before I found the scrambler."
