Here are a few copy/paste answers of the most common fixes for your issue. Hope it works!

I emailed DJI and the response was to upgrade the software and re-calibrate everything. I flew this morning in 1080p and issue seems fixed.. Someone on the forum said that may fix the problem. Thanks

Try to re-update to the lastest firmware and then re-calibrate everything:
step1: calibrate IMU via DJI Assistant 2 (free app for computer)
step2: Calibrate GPS
step3: Calibrate Gimbal

See if this fixes it. Many people have also reported that their gimbal's were only auto-recalibrating while recording and having it switch to 4k.

Did all these 3 steps but the problem didn't go away. Bought Mavic(refurbished) about 2 months ago, so theoretically it should go under warranty but as summer has just started then I don't want to send my drone to them.

btw, it's not just gimbal. Right before gimbal starts reset camera is facing road but after the reset it is facing lake. So drone itself must have lost orientation as well.
