Hi, welcome to LZ and Freelander ownership.

The rear door handle coming away is a common problem with the F1. I've never had a problem with mine, so not familiar with the ins and outs. If it takes a while for a response, there are loads of threads about this sort of problem that might shine some light on your situation. A quick google found these for starters...

Seems a common occurrence due to age after a while.
