EOS 80D Camera blips off if I hit the SD door

Hey all, I've not long bought a canon 80D used from MPB, one thing I've noticed is that there is a tenancy that if I knock the top corner of the SD door (where the switch is) when gripping the camera it'll temporarily blip of the camera off as if the door has been opened.

Is this something that's known to happen and should just be worked around by actively trying not to knock the door, or is this essentially faulty?

Greetings,

This sounds like a potential hardware issue and would likely require tear down and repair.  I suggest you return the body and buy another one.  Keeping it is not worth it.
