I know I bought an older car with older parts but I am surprised since I replaced it with a newer part. Could anything else be wrong? Thank you all for your help.

I will bet the one you replaced was the original. Thats how long they should last. You can almost tell if they were replaced by if they are not painted. I bet the passenger side is painted and original.
I say almost because I do paint mine when I put them in.
