Why is my Kia Sorento making a rattling noise?

I recently noticed a rattling noise coming from the front of my Kia Sorento. It seems to only happen when I am accelerating. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

Hi Emily, the rattling noise could be caused by a loose heat shield on your exhaust system. I recommend taking it to a mechanic to have it checked and tightened if necessary.

Emily, it could also be a problem with your engine mount. It's worth having it checked as it can cause further damage if left unaddressed.

I had a similar issue with my Sorento. Turned out to be a faulty pulley. I suggest having your mechanic check all the pulleys to see if any need to be replaced.
