My 2008 Ford Escape liftgate makes a terrible squeeking noise with every bump. They said it was the license plate, but I put foam under it and that's not the problem. I seems tight and my husband rode in the back while I drove down the road, and if he opened the liftgate just alittle the noise stopped. Its driving me nuts!

SOURCE: 2002 ford escape liftgate wont lock/unlock

either the motor that locks it is not working or some mice might have chewed some wires or something. first you will want to see if you have power going to the lock under the panel if yuou do then your lock motor is bad and needs replaced if you dont have power you need to check fuses if that still dont work u need to find out where your power stops at

SOURCE: My 2005 ford escape has a terrible squeek coming

there is nothing under the floor of the pedal will make that terrible squeak sound. have your belt check make sure they are tight and not slipping, it will also make that loud squeak sound if it slips. go to auto parts store and purchase a can of WD40 and spray it on all the pulley under the hood. have the engine off while spraying the pulleys. don't worry if it get on other parts of the engine. Common problems with pulleys squeaking on many vehicle.

I'd get a can of silicone spray and spray hinges, and latch, as well as a light coat on weatherstrip all around the opening, unless it sounds like a mechanical part inside the door.

Hello Jon, those noises can be annoying and sometimes very hard to find. On your Escape inspect the rear window area and see if you can determine if that is the source. I have seen where this has been the cause of a "squeeking" sound as you have described. An adjustment may be needed. Also for problem areas use some silicone spray lubricant, this is a dry spray that lubricates door locks, trunk lids, brake cables, rubber moldings, etc. I hope this helps.

Had a question about this yestrerday, they had a blanket caught in the hatch.
If you can not get the latch to release from the outside, you may have to take the panel off on the inside and try to unbolt the latch.

that is a strut, the rubber is squeeking, but if its making a bumping noise you need to replace the strut and rubbers, that will take care of your problem.

My 2005 ford escape has a terrible squeek coming from under the gas pedal. It becomes worse as I accelerate. I can't find any type of linkage to lube.

there is nothing under the floor of the pedal will make that terrible squeak sound. have your belt check make sure they are tight and not slipping, it will also make that loud squeak sound if it slips. go to auto parts store and purchase a can of WD40 and spray it on all the pulley under the hood. have the engine off while spraying the pulleys. don't worry if it get on other parts of the engine.
