Creaking Brake spring

Has this been happening for the entire year of ownership, or just recently started?
This started about 5 months ago. The return spring for the brake pedal rest against the back of the arm. When you depress the brake it shifts the spring slightly. Once it wears the coating off the spring it gives a vibration on the spring coil. I thought it was just my car but the dealer service Mgr. knew about it. The grease helped but short time. My family didn't notice it till I pointed it out.
