What stands out
No new NHTSA seatbelts complaint has been filed on this vehicle in over 6 years — the issue may be aging out of the active population.
A seat belt that does not properly latch would not restrain a user, increasing their risk of injury in the event of a crash. A seat belt that does not properly unlatch when the release button is pressed may prevent the occupant from quickly exiting the vehicle in a emergency, such as after a crash, increasing their risk of injury.
Fix: Nissan will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the both front seat belt buckle assemblies, replacing them as necessary, free of charge. The recall began on September 14, 2015. Owners may contact Nissan customer service at 1-800-647-7261.

repair instructions, service campaigns, or warranty extensions sent to dealers. A TSB isn't a recall
(it's not a free safety remedy), but it's the manufacturer acknowledging the issue and how to fix it.

The driver's side seat belt sometimes doesn't latch and sometimes won't latch. There was a recall #15v501000 in 2015 for the seat belt latch with the same problem. I contacted the Nissan dealership where the vehicle was purchased, they said there wasn't a recall on the seat belt. But I could bring it in and they would work on it, of course the mileage is too high to be covered under warranty.
