I posted a problem back on 10/29 about a dash that sqeaked in a 2001 QC after reading some of your feed back.Wilk2855 said it may be the steering column and the dealer had his replaced no more squeak. Well it is a long drive for me to the dealership so I ripped the dash apart several times myself. I tightened every screw i could find lubed any metal to metal contact and even dropped the steering column lubed it tightened it still nothing.
AHHH the obvious I took some wd-40 and sprayed where the steering column goes through the fire wall in the engine compartment and all the linkages. For 2 weeks now no more squeaks.

WD40 is mostly solvent, very little lubricant, so the fix is temporary. Get some silicone spray.

Graig, good to hear you found the squeak. Sounds like my dealer made a couple of bucks from Chrysler by changing out parts in the the steering and got lucky with fixing the squeak. The owner of my dealearship also drives a quad cab and his developed a squeak shortly after they fixed mine. They also worked on his steering to fix the squeak.
