The O2 sensor shouldn't be your primary concern, the leak should be. Did the dealer tell you where the leak was coming from?

Ah, yes. Common problem on our vehicles and plenty of DIY threads around here to help you with that if you're up to the task.

I'd say it's not incredibly pressing as in, don't let them scare you into paying stealership repair prices, but definitely look into getting it done soon as ignoring it is only going to make matters worse.
