The disconnection is not necessarily the fault of the wireless Android Auto USB dongle, or wired USB connection. I have two MA1's running in two cars and they are typically very stable. Every once in a long while, I might get a drop out, but they look as though they are more related to cell signal issues, than hardware stability.
I've had the same thing happen in another vehicle that has an aftermarket head unit with built-in wireless Android Auto.
Personally, I prefer to mount my phone high up on the dash and in the open, so as to get as good cell reception as possible. Not only for that, but I noticed my phone would typically run warm when in AA operation, so I actually mount them so as to get some cold air from an A/C vent outlet. A few times I forgot to take my phone out of my belt pouch, and it would pretty darn warm. Not good for phone/battery longevity.
