Welcome to the forum.

You need to get the error codes read from the car's computer. It could be a number of thinks from a loose plug to the airbag ecu ...

As you have a late model you should be able to find a local garage or auto electrician that can do that. Or sign in on peugeotforums.com and check if one of the members there has PP2000 and is local to you. They won't fix it but might be able to pinpoint the problem and should be cheaper than a garage.

This used to happen with ours occasionally. Usually after the driver's seat had been moved forward or back. A gentle waggle of the wires under the seat has always sorted it. Hasn't happened for about a year since I replaced the car battery. A battery that is on its last legs can also cause spurious warning lights and messages to come up.

Not very technical I know, but it has worked for us.
