Am I missing something here? Was something not installed? I have read every post and do not see anything mentioning this issue. My body shop said there was no return spring provision for to prevent this from occurring. Thanks.
Sounds like the latch spring or the relay spring is broken, It should close and stay closed when shut from outside. its a normal function of these latches. all handle should return to their normal position
