The tension on the blades of the cord cap to the receptacle does not have enough pressure to make a good connection. Whenever a receptacle feels loose when you plug an appliance into it, change the receptacle out for a new one. This will prevent the condition you state from happening.

Can you install a 220 V baseboard heater at an electric range outlet where an electric range will no longer be used and Can a range pigtail be connected to the wall anchored heater and simply plugged?
Yes, I see no reason this couldn't be done. But first, make sure the current drawn by the heater is 80% or less than the rating of the circuit and outlet. As for connecting a cord to this heater, that, too, should be a simple matter. I would look for what we call a knock-out, which is a hole punched but not yet removed from the area where electrical connections are to be made. You will need to buy a NM cable connector large enough for the cable. If there is no knock-out or if it is not large enough for the connector you need, you can hole-saw a hole to the size you need. If there is not room to do this cleanly then you should contact a competent electrician for more specific advice.
