If the washer is noisy during the spin cycle or is leaking from the bottom of the tub near the transmission, the tub seal and bearing are likely defective. Replacing the tub bearing is a very involved repair and will require disassembling most of the washer. If the tub bearing is defective, we recommend replacing the outer tub and bearing at the same time.

The previous answer is strange. It says, "We recommend...," but in fact that answer is the product of one volunteer and not Help Owl. There are in fact three common causes of your problem, and for the solutions see https://www.repairclinic.com/RepairHelp/How-To-Fix-A-Washing-Machine/39-4--TVZXQjQ1MFdRIA==/Maytag-Washer-is-making-loud-noise.
