Controller just keeps cutting out

So I picked NFS Unbound up at release and had this same issue back then as well, which made me quit playing at that time. Now 3 years later I try picking it up again, and of course the same issue is still here. Since those 3 years I've had a new PC, new controllers, new windows install, and still the same issue persists... Doesn't matter where I am in the game the controller suddenly cuts out randomly.

I've tried just about everything I could find online trying to fix this issue for NFS Unbound, but nothing is working. The strange thing is though, this issue only happens in NFS Unbound. Not a single other game or racing game I've tried has this issue, including previous NFS titles such as Heat, NFS '15, and Hot Pursuit. It's ONLY Unbound that has the issue.

So is there a fix I can still try to do, one that's not currently already posted on the internet? I'm pretty sure I've already tried every possible fix I can think of and found online, including getting a whole new PC with fresh windows install.

It can only be an issue with the game itself at this point, I think.
