Airbag Repairs – Hyde

Why is my airbag light on?

The airbag light sometimes comes on briefly when you start your car, but it should turn off within a few seconds. If the light stays on, try turning the car off and back on – this simple reset often resolves the issue. However, if the light remains illuminated, it signals a problem that likely requires professional attention. The experienced mechanics at Station Garage are here to help.

Can I drive with the airbag light on?

While it’s not illegal to drive with the airbag light on, it’s strongly discouraged. The light indicates that your airbag system may not work properly, putting your safety at risk. Additionally, driving with the warning light illuminated could void your insurance if the airbag fails to deploy during an accident. Our advanced diagnostic tools allow us to quickly identify and fix the problem, ensuring your vehicle is safe to drive with minimal hassle.

Will my car fail its MOT if the airbag light is on?

Yes, your car will fail its MOT test if the airbag light is illuminated. Since the airbag system is a critical safety feature, it must be fully functional to pass the test. If your MOT is coming up and the light is on, call Station Garage today. We’ll fix the issue promptly so you can pass your MOT without stress.
