Safety Belt pre-tensioner Status (Driver pre-tensioner Circuit Fault).
On the seat belt buckle there is a pre-tensioner that when vehicle is involved in an accident it will deploy and pull the belt tighter.
If the vehicle has never been involved in an accident it could be what we call terminal fretting which is just a build up on the terminals which cause a open circuit. Usually just unplugging and reconnecting the connector a couple of times will fix this.
If this doesn't correct it I would recommend having your local dealer look at it.

I had the same problem. On mine it was the brake pedal switch/sensor. Try using the override button. Your manual should have a section on this. There is a sliding panel under the steering wheel cover about 1-1 1/2 inch wide, access the small hole it covers. Use a thin screwdriver, pencil, lollipop stick to depress the button. If this is the problem, you should be able to move the gear lever now.

Aside from the fuses, your drive side power door lock may be failing to work because of a bad door-lock relay system, or, alternatively, the locking switch/button, itself, is not malfunctioning and in need of replacement.
A great handyman site that specifies the above probable causes and more is the following link:
