Well if you use the Ebay listing as a guide at least 2283 have failed as that's how many have been sold so far.

The power window switch on a 2009 Silverado that I once owned was acting up. I removed it from the door and was able to take the switch apart. It was really dirty on the contacts so I gently cleaned it and it worked fine. Took about an hour if I recall.

Hate to derail your window switch thread but when I saw the subject I had a part failure a couple of years ago that I had to throw into the conversation.

The clutch fork in my 72 Nova broke as I was leaving a shown shine. I had lots of help with suggestions what the problem might be but nobody came up with the fork failure.

If you look at the eBay listing, there are 29 pages of models that this switch fits right back to 2007

Similar thought on part failures.
Once phoned a GM dealer looking for a headlight switch for a what was then a couple year old pickup. Guy said he had 5 in stock. Guess they failed regularly and he was prepared with replacements.

I buy door lock actuators for my GMC Suburban 6 at a time, I can't tell you how many times in 19 years I've changed them, all 5 doors there is no discrimination on these things. I also break inside door levers all the time and the dealer always has them in stock, I was told that tow truck drivers snap these things off like green beans and its the same part in all GMC's my vintage.
