did the airbags deploy? the seatbelts have a system linked to the airbags and will lock up on impact. even if the airbags didnt deploy the seatbelts may. the only way to fix it is replace the seatbelt assemblies.

they wont unlock dude. there is a small explosive charge, just like the airbags, to lock them in place. they're toast.

the only thing to do because you can't unlock them is just to buy the seatbelts. I went to a nissan dealership and they run like $64.00 each.
