Default Really Sensitive USB Ports

Hi Guys.

Have any of you noticed that the USB ports are really sensitive to touch?

I have a flash drive connected to one of the USB ports near the front cup holder so I could listen to MP3s.
If I put a cup in this holder as music is playing, the USB gets interrupted and needs to be restarted.

I also tested this with the rear USB ports by installing an LED light and it's constantly going in and out.

I think it has to do with your flash memory, it may be lose. Try to squeeze the sheet that goes in, in the middle.

Make it look like this:

I've been noticing I have to hard-reset my radio at times (volume button long press) because the Apple Car Play stops detecting the phone. I'll reboot the phone (13 Pro) and nothing happens until I reboot the radio. It'll say "unsupported device detected" and have no connectivity wired. It's infrequent and relatively rare but annoying. I've ruled out the cable because as soon as I reboot everything, nothing else touched, wire not moved, it magically works perfectly.

Thanks ESh. I'll give that a try.
