I am not a blind Rad follower and I am not related to the bicycle business in any way. And, I feel you should definitely try to get what you can get if there is a legitimate warranty issue.
I found my chain/derailleur noise went away after 300 miles and after the cables have become loose, and a after I had to readjust the brakes/derailleur.
So in addition to what other's have suggest and pursuing other avenues - I suggest you keep riding as long as the noise is not indicating your bike is grinding itself apart.
