Had the same problem with my sport.
Fords under warranty changed lash 3 times and handles.
Then refused to do anymore when it still didn't fix it.

Got them to change the top catch never had a problem with it again.

Use a screw driver to close each latch. do one at a time and test the handle,see which one is hard to open.
Remember there is 3 top middle and bottom

i have a 55 plate connect which is ex national grid,my rear handle has pulled off on me about 6/7 times it always go's back on but is just too worn out to stay put,if i didn't have a side door it would have been a complete pain in the arse,ie tools locked in ect,ect,is the handle a common issue ???
