If you need new switch for door handle, bought two off e-bay for $12.00 each, set was $24.00 free shipping, and no taxes and they worked great.
The seller was Chevrolet dealer, in Tx.

When you hit the button inside and out, does the window index down like it is trying to operate....if so, the mechanicals in the b pillar prob need to be replaced.....you could try lubing it first.....

seems like the timing was just bad for it to go out right after you bought it.....but unfortunately it is pretty common...

you can take the switch apart and clean it.
I used my wife's fingernail polish remover to clean mine on my 06.
Never had an issue with it after that.
