Unexpected Messages

This morning the wife went to work.. the cars started up fine and all appeared well.
On the way home, she called and said she was getting notifications that included the following:
CC msg: Chassis stabilization: Drive moderately
CC msg: Parking Brake: Continuous driving possible
Restraint system: Fault in airbag, belt tensioner or belt-force limiter
As far as she could tell, it still drove fine.

We went ahead and dropped it off at the dealer.
Do you think these could be caused by a weak battery (batteries)?
There are no records that indicate a battery change and we are the third owner.
I don't have a code reader to check the codes.
Any ideas?
It's just weird that it's been fine all week and then these notifications pop up.

If you look in your trunk, at the top of battery post will be stamped with manufacture date,if battery is original. If your battery is original, it's due for replacement.

I found some pics I took of the batteries when we purchased the car in 2021...they're not the greatest, but I'm not able to determine the dates from them. Do y'all see it?

Duh..
Did a quick search and found the answer... one of the batteries was manufactured in 2016... the image isn't as clear for the other one, but I'm going to assume it was pretty close.
stocktree Thanks for the tip.

Seems like your care is MY17 but built in 2016 and battery is original, so 7 years later it might be a good time to replace it.
