if springs are very short as in dropped or cut when you hit bumps they can b loose and ratteling if severly cut or lowered it is possible for them to cum flying out when unloaded

i have 2 chains welded to my hood that slide down behind the radiator and I lock them together to keep the scumbags from stealing my battery.

The chains rattle.
doubt thats your problem though ;)
