I have an 09' Equinox Sport AWD. Within the last few months the rear hatch as started to squeak whenever I go over small bumps in the road or just normal driving. I have tightened all bolts and screws that attach the hatch to the vehicle as well as lubricate the area. Does this have to do with the actual latching mechanism? Is there something that needs to be adjusted?

Open to any suggestions.

Thanks!

Are you sure it is the hatch, and not the shocks ? Try pushing on the hatch to isolate the noise.

I am almost positive that it is the rear hatch. I have seen a few suggestions on how to fix the issue after browsing for a bit. I will try to do some trouble shooting myself tonight.
