Had a similar issue, but when using iPhone 15 Pro with the car. The cabbie used to sit very firmly in the port, now the tiniest bump can disrupt the connection, which is extremely annoying.

Tested with a charger on a different cable and the phone was losing connection in a similar manner - bump it and it will disconnect for a moment, sometimes not reconnecting at all.

I have make sure the usb c is pushed in all the way, then after it sits for awhile I'll check back and it has ever so slightly loosened in the port so its no longer charging. Frustrating to wake up in the morning with an uncharged phone. I think I'll take it in to apple and see if they can fix it.

Just wasted an hour of my time for Apple to tell me that the cord that comes with the phone is not lose so there is nothing they will do. They don’t sell a cord for Apple play in my car so they reccomend Belkin. I have already bought Anker and used the cord that came with my car from Toyota for Apple Play and neither work without coming loose. I am now buying yet another cord just to prove to them it’s their problem!!
