I'm sure there are parts that wear out. Off the edge of my
remembery, some units use fiber spacers to hold up the wash
drum, or mabye big springs. In any case, sounds like time to
call a washing machine repair tech before something goes
worse.

Also google Appliance Repair Clinic, that web site is
aparently very helpful.

I have a 4 year old Maytag washer which has recently begun
"walking"
around during the spin cycle. It moves several feet from its
original
position.

The washer is carefully levelled and the feet are making
solid contact
with the concrete floor. The levelling from side to side and
from front
to back has been checked multiple times and appears
essentially perfect.

The size of the load and the distribution of the load does
not seem to
make much difference, if any.

This has just recently begun, and the prior levelling seemed
to keep
the machine from "walking" for the last 4 years, even with
several
loads per week of use.

Are there vibration dampers or other parts which wear out?
Are there
other things which can be adjusted "do it yourself"?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or advice.
