#1 of 7 Maxima has bad rattle in trunk by awfpack Jan 29, 2008 (8:30 am)
My parents have a 2004 Maxima. Everytime they hit a small bump there is a bad rattle that sounds like it is coming from the trunk. They have had it into Nissan 3 times and it is still not any better. I checked the spare tire and all that stuff and it was fine. Any ideas.?   Thanks Robby Replies to this message: alexstore (Jan 29, 2008 9:39 am) usatruck6 (Jan 30, 2008 10:37 pm) bruce46 (Jan 31, 2008 1:39 pm)

Replying to: awfpack (Jan 29, 2008 8:30 am) I had the same problem and it was a sway bar link bolt near the right rear tire. The bolt is about 6 inches long. If you have gone over a curb it may have broken. Sounds like it is in the trunk. Car needs to be on lift for mechanic to see it.
#5 of 7 Rattle in front driver's side by duckie5 Jun 22, 2008 (2:17 pm)
I have a 1995 Maxima. A couple of months ago, I started to hear and FEEL a kind of rattle that seems to be coming from under the floorboard of the driver's side. It almost sounds/feels like there is a suspension problem, but I got it checked out and it's not. It seems to make the rattle when the car is driven for the first time in the morning or if it has been sitting for several hours. The noise gets worst when I go over the little lane bumps as I change lanes. Any idea what could be causing it? I've taken it to a mechanic 3 times and he can't find it. In fact, he can't even hear/feel it. Replies to this message: clarence3 (Apr 27, 2009 11:42 am)

Replying to: duckie5 (Jun 22, 2008 2:17 pm) I, too, have a 1995 Maxima, and have the same noise, (rattle) as described by duckie 5. I cannot find the source and was wondering if duckie5 ever did? Hopefully, someone will post what they found that corrected this.   Clarence3
#7 of 7 2009 and 2010 Maxima Squeaks and Rattles by smarty666 Oct 03, 2009 (12:30 pm)
Hi, I have a 2010 Maxima SV for about a month now and I can't believe the amount of squeaks/rattles/and noise that comes from a brand new $38k car. I have one rattle/vibration noise coming from the top corner panel of the driver front door where it meets the dash and when I squeeze my hand between the gap in between the driver door and the dash the noise goes away and when I remove my hand it comes back; I have another squeaky/rattle occur when my arm is resting on the center console armrest and I go over bumps and it sounds like the armrest or the plastic hinge/tray below is loose, and there is a third buzzy/vibration coming from the rear passenger side seat area in either the ceiling area/arch going down into the rear window, or in the actual seat itself; I've had the car once into the dealership for all these rattles/squeaks but none have been resolved and they did the usual BS of we didn't hear anything when we drove the car; I wanted to find out if anyone with a 2009 Max or 2010 has had any similar squeaks/rattles with their max's?
