Corrupted SD card?

I shot an interview with my D5200 this week and the test clip was great. I stopped the camera 2 other times over the course of about 20 minutes. At the end of the interview I reviewed some of the video clips, watching the start of 2 after viewing a 1 minute test all the way through, and everything looked good. When I got home I found that both longer clips had the video freeze apx 1 minute in and then the audio and video became unsynced. I've had the camera for almost a year and never had any issue like this. I brought in the video clip from the camera a couple times and also created 3 different Adobe Premiere files to test if it was a download problem or a AP file issue, none of it worked. I had my son bring the video into his computer, same result. I also watched he clip through in the camera and in every case the video will not play through. What's worse is the audio continues but skips, so I don't know if I can salvage any of it. I have never formatted my SD cards. Does this sound like an SD card issue or camera issue?
 
A little to late now but you should really format your SD cards often. I generally format mine as soon as I see that my files have successfully transferred to my computer and I have finished edited them or at least spot checked a few of them.

I am in the habit of putting my cards in the camera and as I take it out of the bag ready for my shoot I do a format of both cards in there ready for the shots I am about to get

I'll have to test the camera and hopefully it was a card issue. I will definitely be formatting the card from now on.
