When I had my issues a few weeks ago, I took the time to plumb the
tracks as much as possible and lubricate most of the joints and
rollers with a silicone lubricant, so I'm surprised to hear a high-
pitched squeak as the door goes down. Is a silicone-based lubricant
not a good garage door lubricant? Are there other possible scenarios
for why the door is reversing when it's almost closed?

Thanks.

Release the safety mechanism (door closed) to manually lift the door
and see where the binding might be. Maybe a bad roller cocking in the
track.
