mutating method sent to immutable object - error

NSUserDefaults *defaultDefects = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
    NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);

NSMutableArray *loadDefects = [defaultDefects objectForKey:@"defaultDefects"];
    NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);
if (loadDefects == nil) {
    loadDefects = [NSMutableArray array];
}
    NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);
//PROBLEM HERE
[loadDefects addObject:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:self.defectPositionX ]];
[loadDefects addObject:[NSNumber numberWithDouble:self.defectPositionY ]];
NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);


[defaultDefects setObject:loadDefects forKey:@"defaultDefects"];
NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);

[defaultDefects synchronize];
NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);


ViewControllerImage *secondViewController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"ViewControllerImage"];
secondViewController.thicknessValue1 = self.thicknessValue1;

NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);

[self presentViewController:secondViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
NSLog(@"%f %f", self.defectPositionX, self.defectPositionY);

The full error report is this

* Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInternalInconsistencyException', reason: '-[__NSCFArray insertObject:atIndex:]: mutating method sent to immutable object' * First throw call stack: (0x2e8e2f03 0x39077ce7 0x2e8e2e45 0x2e85642b 0xb93d3 0x311476c7 0x31147663 0x31147633 0x31132d7b 0x3114fa3d 0x31146c7d 0x31141ca7 0x31116e75 0x31115541 0x2e8adfe7 0x2e8ad4af 0x2e8abc9f 0x2e8167a9 0x2e81658b 0x337836d3 0x31175891 0xb7851 0x39575ab7) libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException

I am confused at how I have it as a Mutable Array yet it's calling it Immutable meaning I cannot mutate it.. It's the first time I've come across this error and I am struggling to grasp it.

When running the app and I save the data into the mutable array, sometimes it works and then sometimes it crashes...?

The problem with assigning to a NSMutableArray is, it will only work if defaultDefects was assigned an NSMutableArray for the given key.

Note: NSUserDefaults always returns an immutable object.

Do this instead

NSMutableArray *loadDefects = [[defaultDefects objectForKey:@"defaultDefects"]mutableCopy];

this guarantees a mutable copy.
