Default Hatch handle coming off

Hey, the part of my hatch where you would grab and push the button to pull up the hatch is becoming looser and looser. It's not to the point where it rattles pretty bad over bumps and i'm sure it rattles pretty hardcore with my sub.

Is there a way to prevent it from worsening and stopping it from rattling or just fix it?

Tighten it up.
Open it with caution.

Just dont "PULL" on it when lifting the Hatch.

Just push the button to open and Raise it...

Mine did it also.. It broke 2 screws out of 4... I looked at it once i took it off to paint the 3rd brake.

jb weld them back on. simple fix. But its a pain to get off because the screw turns while you loosen the bolt so you have to have pliers or something to hold it while you turn it.
