Same problem with mine. Didn't notice it at first as I primarily charge wirelessly. However, my car requires a wired connection for CarPlay, and the slightest bump causes the cable to come out. I tested it on a brand new cable straight out of the apple box, and just falls out. Tried to clean the port with a toothpick since the phone is in my pocket a lot, but still no change. I have a genius bar appointment shortly, so hopefully I can get a fix or at least some answers.
