You should get the airbags checked out at the dealer. Basically one of the airbags is reporting a fault. I had this on an audi I used to own. Best not to leave it and get it checked ASAP as a faulty airbag could go off at any time!!
It could be something as simple as a loose wire or it could need a replacement airbag.

It could be something as simple as a pinch or loose wire harness. I wonder if they accidentally knocked something out of place while they were working?

i had the same thing happen to me and it was as simple as making sure the lever for the tilt wheel is all the way up. this seems to trigger the airbag sensor and make the light come on.
