Well definitely you or somebody else will have to open your PS3 and find out what is "loose". If this part is some metal piece than every move of your PS3 can be dangerous because of possibility of short circuit.

Problem could be practically everything in it - loose cables, screws lying in wrong places.....

Check everything ( use repair guide for teardown here on iFixit site) and after that let us know what is result of your investigation.
