Squeaky suspension?

Hey guys, i need some help/advice from you guys. So i notice that whenever i drive through little bumps, i hear a little squeak sound coming from the top right of my car. Do you think its crucial to get fixed or just something annoying for now. I don't want to bring it into the dealership cause i know they'll tell me i need to fix it ASAP.

i had a similar situation a year ago before my warranty expired and it turned out to be the strut bar was cracked. before they found that they replaced the suspension and other parts. it took them 3 days to finally notice the strut bar. my SA kept calling me and updating me about it until the 3rd day and said they practically replaced the whole suspension in the front. so if your car is under warranty i would take it and get it fixed.

It can also be that the strut itself is lacking the necessary lube..When the spring compresses so does the strut..Obviously those two parts need appropriate lube to counter the friction..
