Back seat - seat belt clasps reversed

2015 Honda Fit EX, brand new & just noticed that the back seat, left side, center & window seat belt clasps are wrong. When you sit in the driver's side back seat & try to put the seat belt in the lock it wont fit. It goes in the middle one & the middle lock fits the window side seat belt.
Back to the dealer!

From 2015 Fit New Model Newsletter Information (Version 5)

Rear Seat Belt Buckles:To some people, customers and dealer personnel alike, the center seat belt buckles on our five-passenger vehicles appear to be installed incorrectly; they’re not. Mounting the outer seat belt buckles inboard of the center buckle gives the outer passengers more room to connect and disconnect the seat belts. Don’t unbolt the lower anchor plates to uncross the belts; such a change in the belt’s configuration may not offer the same level of protection.

Thank-you. Center back seat belt is in the "ceiling" so it makes a little more sense.

Why don't they just make the buckles interchangeable and let the passengers choose which buckle to use? Even Chevy has figured that out!
