Center Dash Squeaking
 
I recently purchased an 05 SE and I'm notice that the center dash/console squeaks and pops whenever the weight of the car shifts (turning, cornering, stopping and starting). Sounds like cheap plastic. Is anyone else's doing this? I bought it used with about 18000 miles on it and I didn't notice it when I test drove it. I've had it about a month now and it's starting to drive me crazy. I took it to the dealer and of course they couldn't duplicate the noise but I hear it everytime a take a curve, turn, or take off from a light. This is the second Maxima I've owned as I had an 01 and never had any squeaks or rattles. Any help is appreciated.

I'm starting to get that but on the driver side door. As you mentioned is like a squeaking noise. Sounds like a bed that's had it's share of good times. Is this type of problem covered by the warranty, or is there anything I can do regarding this. This is a bit of a nuisance, and not to mention kind of embarassing if you have others in your car.

I just saw this TSB but I can't tell if it's related to the problem I'm having

You might try pushing on the some of the center dash pieces. While it's making noise to see if you can find the noisy panel. You also might want to take the Technician out for a test drive yourself.

Yeah, I did that and all of it squeaks. The part where all the buttons are, the peice where the CD goes and the part around the gear shift. I'm going to take it back and this time I'm going to drive with the technician with me.

this is what happens when 75% of our cars are built in america. Sad but true.

All cars no matter where they are made have some problems even the 100 thousand plus ones.
Just take it back like stated above and have the tech in the car. Mean while pump up the volume.
