Default Good evening all.....is the following pic of a spring the item that causes the headliner rattle?

Click the image to open in full size.

If so should I worry that it is no longer serving whatever purpose it is supposed to serve? (360 controller for size reference)

TIA

Default tilt the sunroof & peek in the back to see how many remain. If under warranty

they will replace the spring anchors with stonger ones. They just tilt the sunroof shade up when you tilt the glass.
