Drivers handle not springing close

Has anyone else had this happen? My drivers side door handle will not spring back to where it is flush with the part of the handle that is on the door. It sticks out about 1/4 to 1/2 an inch! I can push it to where it is supposed to be, but this has already gotten old. I have an apointment at the dealer tomorrow and they said they can fix it. Just wondering if this was a common problem.

mine went in for it twice. was approved for exchange yesterday. they are going to paint it before my next appointment to install it as well. also got my fog lights replaced as they were hazed over on the inside and it looked liek the chrome was peeling off.

My driverside handle had this problem. I tried the fix in the link but that was not the problem. I had to have the handle replaced.
Definately try the fix in the link first, it may save you a few trips to the dealership.
