2 Seat Belt problem

Failure Date: 02/05/2002

The driver's seat belt unlatches frequently and without warning. My husband has always been the one to drive the car and has ignored the problem. However, I am driving the car on a daily basis now and I'm concerned for my safety. I see many complaints and recalls for this problem on the internet, but there is no recall on my VIN. Help!! why is this problem a safety hazard and recall on some cars and not others???? it is terribly unsafe on any car!.
