Default 05 GMC - Power window motor/relay failure?

My passenger side front window decided to not work. I'm going to get it fixed under warranty, but given that the truck is less than a year old, I was wondering if this is some common issue that I need to look out for. When you hit the switch there is a barely audible 'click' coming from the passenger door, but the window does not budge. All of the other windows work just fine.

Has anyone else had this happen on a relatively new truck?

If you are hearing a click, that's most likely the relay working, right? Sounds like the motor may have gone out?

Just an update. I was never able to make time to take it in, but the window motor/relay/switch seems to have healed itself inexplicably.

Anyone else ever have this happen?

That's what scares me. If it can fix itself, it can break itself again just as easily.
