How long will a brake light switch replacement take on my Volkswagen?

How often should I replace the brake light switch on my Volkswagen?
There are no serviceable elements in a brake light switch, so if one becomes faulty, it is simply replaced.

This can also be the case if your brake lights fail to switch off, even though there is no pressure on the brake pedal.
