Loss of power on a7 Battery grip

I have an a7 with Sony VG-C1EM battery grip which worked great for about 6 months but now loses power angling the camera down or just bumping it when turned to portrait.  I put tape on the back of the batteries to make them more snug but that made the cam not power up at all.  Im not sure which of the 4 contacts are shifting during movement.  When I return to using a single battery in the camera without the grip it has no issues whatsoever.  

 

I purchased the grip from Bestbuy about a year ago for $248 so I would like to get at least a few years out of it if not much longer.

 

Any experience with this issue and any solutions that have been discovered?  

 

Greatly appreciate any help in advance
