Your Mac's Specs
15" MBP '06 2.33 C2D 4GB 10.7; 13" MBA '14 1.8 i7 8GB 10.11; 21" iMac '13 2.9 i5 8GB 10.11; 6S
I give up - iPhone 5c, running 7.1

Maps app closes if you select the address bar, the shortcut for getting directions and the Recents option.

Have tried:
1. power off
2. reset - holding home and power button
3. full restore to factory - this works 1 time (see below) or until I restore the backup
4. Clear settings on the phone - this permits you to put in 1 address and then returns to just closing the app on every susbsequent touch of the address bar
5. Trick someone else posted of sending an email with a google maps link and opening the link - this does nothing since it only opens in Safari instead of Maps
6. quitting the app - this does clear the last address, but still the app closes as soon as you touch the address bar

My 5s functions just fine also - doesn't help me fixing my wife's phone.
