That's the symptom of a broken return spring, but I haven't heard of a broken spring on a 2008 (yet). Try working the lever with your hand. You should be able to feel if there is spring pressure pushing up, or if it's hanging. Maybe something like a breather hose rubbing on your linkage behind the primary case?
