I have a 2000 Nissan Maxima GLE I have knocking coming from the passenger side tire area, what I have done is replaced all shocks, front struct plates, tire rod, and both control arms and bushing and aligned, knocking still there when driving and going over bumps, and the work was done by the dealership. Can anyone help! Thanks for your time and efforts

Take it back to the dealership. You paid a lot of money for those services. Dealership typically has 6 mos to 1 year warranty.

Have the dealer check your sway bar mounting bushings and the sway bar end links. Those end links will make a clunking sound going over bumps, when they are worn.

Have them check the pass. side engine mount. Almost guaranteed after all else has been replaced. I'd want it done for no charge after the wheel barrow load of money you spent there.
