Is it normal for my Ford S-Max to make a rattling noise when accelerating?

I've noticed that my Ford S-Max makes a rattling noise when I accelerate from a stop. It only happens for a split second and then it's gone. Should I be worried about this or is it a normal thing for this car model?

It's not normal for your car to make a rattling noise when accelerating. This could be a sign of a loose or damaged component and should be checked by a mechanic as soon as possible to avoid any further damage.

I had a similar issue with my Ford S-Max and it turned out to be a loose heat shield. I would recommend taking it to a mechanic to get it checked just to be safe.
