C70 Airbag Warning Light Rollover Sensor

Guys, I'm a bit stressed. My 2013 Volvo C70 diesel is showing an airbag warning light. The error memory says something about a rollover sensor malfunction. Has anyone seen this before? Only done 27672 km!

Yeah, I've seen similar issues reported, usually pointing towards a problem with the crash detection system. When you say 'rollover sensor malfunction', is it giving a specific code, or just a general error? Also, are you experiencing any other issues besides the airbag light?

Just a general error message about the rollover sensor. No other symptoms that I can see. Any idea what it could be? Is it safe to drive?

Okay, a general rollover sensor error with the airbag light is a fairly common issue on that model year. It often means the affected control unit itself is defective. Driving with an airbag warning light isn't ideal as the airbags might not deploy correctly in an accident. You should definitely get it checked by a workshop.

Thanks a lot, I appreciate the advice. I've booked it into the workshop, and they've quoted around 1000€ to replace the control unit. Hopefully, that will sort it!
