contents In this paper, we study positive solutions $u$ of the homogeneous Dirichlet problem for the $p$-Laplace equation $-Δ_p \,u=f(u)$ in a bounded domain $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, where $N\ge 2$, $1<p<+\infty$ and $f$ is a discontinuous function. We address the quantitative stability of a Gidas-Ni-Nirenberg type symmetry result for $u$, which was established by Lions and Serra when $Ω$ is a ball. By exploiting a quantitative version of the Pólya-Szegö principle, we prove that the deviation of $u$ from its Schwarz symmetrization can be estimated in terms of the isoperimetric deficit of $Ω$.
