Squeaky Slideout

We have a 2019 3121RL, and the dinette slide squeaks very loudly when extending or retracting. I've lubricated the drive gear, the square tube with the gear teeth and the shiny round slide bar with the slide lube (Camco I think) several times. But the squeak is still there. It's loud enough that I know campers several sites away can hear it. Any ideas?

TIA

I'd contact the dealer first

Those square tubes with the rack gear on it slides inside another square tube inside the bottom. You might try spraying some lube in the visible part as the slide is being retracted to see if that takes care of it or go the dealer route.

Thanks for the replies. I'm at the Montana rally and the service tech came by and looked at it. He thinks the bushings or slide guides inside the stationary square tube is either bad or missing. He couldn't fix it so forwarded to the factory. Still waiting to hear from them.
