Ford Escape Squeaking Back Hatch

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to stop the squeeking. The back window opens seperate from the hatch. I have sprayed all the hinges, but it still squeeks.

are you saying the window squeaks when opening/closing it?

No, it squeaks when the hatch is closed and we are driving. Have tried everything - still squeaking. Very frustrating to listen to. :confuse:

Take some electrical tape and wrap it around the post 6 or 7 times where the hatch closes at the bottom.
If it is the same fix I have made, just replace the tape once a year or when it starts getting noisy.
Good luck!
