Description of the problem	There is a rumbling noise coming from the right front wheel area when going over bumps at any speed. It sounds like a loose tie-rod ends or axle. The noise stops or is muffled when the brakes are applied when going over bumps. I have taken it back to the dealer four times and they have not been able to repair it. I also have a 1997 nissan pathfinder le, which i have been told that the tie-rod and axle need replacing and it produces the same noise when going over bumps except more severe. The paint on my maxima also has a rough finish to it. *jb
