When going over bumps or potholes, the car makes a sound like something rubbing or friction type sound coming from the front right side. This occurs at low and high speeds. Had the struts inspected and no leaks detected.

Have the struts spring seats inspected. The bearing in the center separates causing to make the noise. Attaching picture so you get a better idea.
