Outback pedal noise/squeak

Hobie Outback pedal noise from left pedal. Started 1 week after purchase. Lubricated with lithium grease and first time it calmed it down some. Not anymore.

Need recommendations on how to address. Have just been living with it but it is more aggravating the older I get.
Did not address it during warranty period, my bad.

What are my options?

This is part number 81509 which is not available per Hobie and not taking back orders.

Grease did work for a bit but hard to get past the clearances on either end.

I did get contact cleaner in to wash out old grease.

Any suggestions.

Mmiller, will an alternative pedal replacement be offered?

Thanks.
