There is a little plastic or spring metal clip that holds the linkage to the lever on the end of the lock cylinder. These little clips don't usually break, but it's not impossible. You need to try to find the apropriate one for your lock and re-install it.
On a long shot, you might look inside the door panel. If someone worked on the lock before, they may have not installed the clip properly, and it just fell off. If so, it should be in the door somewhere. Otherwise, you might find pieces of the plastic clip, and take it somewhere to find a replacement.
