I made a change to the model and updated the drawing and part of the view is not showing up. I've attached a picture. It's a section of a bolt and the bottom part of the head is not showing up. The section line is running completely through the part. Does anybody have any ideas at of what is happening here?

Probably a good idea to post your NX version details, as always.

I would first try moving the end of the section line closest to the fastener to see if that resulted in an update which resulted in what you're expecting.

Interference ?
Does the fastener interfere with some other solid ?

Can you replicate the error in a new file ?

If it isn't an interference issue, try changing the view tolerance to a larger or smaller value. Sometimes edges get lost when the view is recalculated. One trick is entering a value of zero for the view tolerance; this forces NX to calculate a tolerance value for you (one that usually works well).
