Google Chrome crashes on loading sites in Ubuntu 18.04

I haven't made any changes to Chrome or any other file but whenever I load a website on Google Chrome I get this message:

[11180:11180:0517/040053.065219:ERROR:sandbox_linux.cc(368)] InitializeSandbox() called with multiple threads in process gpu-process.

Do you have a coredump file? It might be a good idea to check what is going on with your Chrome.

Make sure that coredump support enabled in your system:

unlimit -c unlimited

Additionally, run the following command to see where your coredump files are stored:

sysctl kernel.core_pattern

Install gdb (debugger) if you don't have one:

apt install gdb

Now run the debugger:

gdb path/to/the/chrome path/to/the/coredump

Check this out for more info:

Use bc (backtrace) command to see what exactly is happening before the program crashes with a core file.
