Squeaks when Front doors close.

My 2004 MGM emits a short squeak when either front door is closed forcefully. I've used a section of hose to try to locate the source but I can't nail it down. This is both front doors so it's not hinges ( car only has 60,000 miles) and I would be able to find it with home made stethoscope if it were hinges. I see references to hood latches and stops and I will check that. Anybody else experienced this?

We have our oil changed at the ford dealership. Last time I was there I was getting ready to leave & remembered to ask about the door squeaking. The guy comes out with a can of WD40 & gives it a couple of shots. No more squeak. I thought it would be a squirt of grease into a grease fitting. I can do that myself.

Routine maintenance on any car for owners to lubricate door hinges and checks every so often , more so on a 14yr old car . " I thought it would be a squirt of grease into a grease fitting " There are no grease fittings , dont know of any cars never mind Fords that have such a thing nowadays . If your car had been in for a service instead of just an oil change they may have lubricated them as does my dealership using white lithium grease .
