SD Card Reader Stops Functioning in Older iMacs

Two years later, and still no solution? Older iMacs SD card reader won't mount cards without restarting? Reader disappears from Disc Utility and the Finder list of devices. Helloooo.... (Empty echoing sound.) Anybody got this? Sick of all the restarting.

iMac, OS X 10.11
