you can't uninstall it. it's an app that comes with the phone. if you installed it from the marketplace, you've performed an update to your app (which was smart). chances are there's something on the SD card the app doesn't like. try this:

home - menu - settings - applications - manage applications - menu - filter - all

then find google maps and hit clear cache/data (whatever button(s) enabled)

also, have you tried rebooting?
