What car ?

OEM or good quality pads are always a sensible idea. OEM kits will also usually come with any clips or shims required, and often there may be specific anti-rattle shims too.

Someone has maybe just left these out.

Or as said, they've maybe used poorly fitting pads or ground them with a grinder due not fitting, corroded caliper etc.
