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.

Do the botom of the rubber feet have rubber left or is metal touching
the floor. A guess, move the drum back , front, right, left ,maybe a
spring holding the basket in the center came loose or something, im
just guessing.

Thanks to all for replying. The concrete floor is flat and level, and
the feet are still rubber-tipped with soft, pliable rubber. The machine
has only been installed for maybe 4 years at the most.

I have gotten the impression that the washing machine itself has
developed a fault. It maybe is a bad spring supporting the drum, a bad
bearing of some type, some missing or worn damper for controlling
vibration, or something of that type. The external feet, level, and
floor are all 100% fine.
