I wonder if there is a good fix for this? Securing down cables a certain way, or creating more secure connections between them?

It's one of three things
1) You need to tighten the bolts down more (use a wrench)
2) You need to crimp your contacts better (use proper tools)
3) The connector housings need to be replaced (this was one of our issues)
