Driver's side seatbelt chimes are required by federal law and dealers can not legally turn them off (not saying they won't, just that it's illegal). Passenger side seatbelt chimes are not specifically required and can be disabled legally. As you probably know, dealers are independent and full of misinformation, so it's not surprising that Toyota does not have total control over what their dealers decide to do or say.
