Clinking sound at slow speeds
Alright. I have an 09 Fit, and have a recent problem that I'm hoping someone can give me some insight on. I'm hearing a clinking sound, similar to the sound a rock hitting a tin can would make. It only happens when I am traveling under about 5mph. As I cruise around the parking lot at a slow speed, there is a constant clicking sound that is quieter, with the louder clink occurring at random. However, the clicking is not always there, most of the time I can only hear the clink once or twice as I accelerate, then it goes away.
Any thoughts? How safe/risky is it for me to drive it? I live in an apartment complex so I can't really do anything on it myself.

Any rattles I've had were either from the jack loosening up a bit in the storage/wheel well, or the rear seats in the full-upright position.
Put the jack back into its slot and open it a bit to wedge it in place, make sure the lug wrench is stowed tightly, and recline the rear seats a bit, see if that makes your noises go away.
