Correct answer

  • BSí, forma parte del mantenimiento preventivo del vehículo.Yes, it is part of the vehicle's preventive maintenance.
Explanation

Checking regularly that all the lights work, including the brake lights and indicators, is part of preventive maintenance: a blown bulb reduces visibility and stops others from noticing your manoeuvres. The type of light makes no difference: xenon or LED lamps can also fail.
