Solving a rattling laptop

Got a MacBook Pro that's rattling due to a loose battery. Can I put in a drops of crazy glue to lock it back in place?

MBP 15 Case separating One of our MBP 15" laptop has the rear case separating, there are old reports from more than 10 years ago of this sort of thing happening, I can't find recent reports. Anyone seen something similar? Is it the battery expanding (which I presume is potentially very bad)

Macbook air 2012, installed new battery, bottom of trackpad sounds loose/clicky now, ideas? My other one couldn't hold a charge well but didn't look bloated at all to have warped anything in my system. All that was weird that happened was that I lost one of the bottom case screws (small ones), could this cause it? (I could get replacement from amazon). I'm also going to go back in and tighten all the case screws, battery screws and tighten the trackpad screws, that's about all I can do right?

Hmmm. How abouy taking it in and see if the can fix it over the counter:

In or out of warranty you can get a free over the counter 'Apple Service Diagnostics' test /assessment

Make an appointment for a "hardware issue"—
