Description of the problem	Bought the maxima new in september 2004, and several months later i started noticing steering vibrations, which was getting worse with time. They manifest typically around 55 mph. After taking it several times to the dealership, the shimmy has never been resolved. The shimmy is distracting, extremely annoying and probably cause extra wear and tear on front steering components including the tires. At this moment no solution to the problem has been found for my car. *jb
