You have to turn off water ....remove cartridge and use heat proof plumbers grease on all inner and outer parts of value and cartridge and body...do not be shy with grease...this should make it better than new...if not buy a new cartridge then grease all...try first to see if works..

hi... yes that's a very common issue with moen "cartridges" -- it's very simple to fix..... grasp the handle and give it a gentle tug upwards when the water is on... if it retracts again, pull the handle out again and tug again but this time a bit harder. Not sure what causes this on new cartridges but it will fix your issue.
