Should the vehicle's lighting system be checked periodically as part of maintenance?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Yes, the lighting system is a fundamental element of the vehicle's active safety, as it serves the dual function of seeing and being seen. Its inspection is an essential part of preventive maintenance. It is not enough to wait for a bulb to burn out; headlight height and alignment must also be checked regularly to avoid dazzling other road users, as well as the cleanliness and condition of the lenses. Xenon or LED lights, although durable, also require inspection.
