Terrible power liftgate sound
Video attached. This sound has been getting worse and worse over the past couple of weeks. I took one strut off and tried to regrease the ball joints, no improvement. Is it time to replace these? Has anyone else had this issue?

Sounds like the hinges are binding up.

I suggest you wipe down the male part of the cylinders with spray silicone lubricant. (WD-40 silicone is one brand)
I spray it on a paper towel first to apply, so as not to get it on unwanted areas.
The sound at the end of your video sounds like the door seal gasket is squeaking or dry as it closes,
I'd wipe down the door seal gasket with silicone as well (.02 worth)
