Look on the sides of the hatch near the back of the car. There should be rubber and plastic pieces that contact each other when the hatch is closed. Just spray them with silicone spray to soften them up. Or, you could replace them.

If you have an aero top could require some silicone spray, I put on Zinc Grase where the 4 holes are, and that fixed everything up for me. The Aero top and Targa Top's can squeek in the roofing itself if it isnt greased up properly or sprayed with silicone, as naturally there is body flex in the cars chassis when driving.
