I have a 1996 Nissan Maxima, and whenever I am driving at a pretty good speed and hit a little bump, my car wobbles. Does anyone know what causes this?
Also sometimes when going over a bump that makes the car bounce, I hear a creaking noise in the front of the car, like something is loose or bouncing around in there. Can anyone help me answer these questions?

Sounds like bad struts for a start. It isn't that safe to drive in its current condition. If you have to do an evasive maneuver, you could lose control. Get it checked out.

It's a fairly light car. Tomorrow morning, go out and grab the top of each tire and try shaking it in and out.
If it makes a "clunking" noise, get it checked out.
Hell, get it checked out anyway. Better safe than sorry.

It's probably your U-joints in your front wheels.
Check out this web site. It will tell you all about it.

its probably your suspension going bad. youll probably have to get new shocks and struts put on it.

THERE IS PROBABLY SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SUSPENSION
