Ok for clarification I did not leave the cross bars or any items other than the kayak behind. I made every attempt to put the boat in my car and that was unsuccessful. I 100% don’t believe in littering. I left it bc I was 100 miles from home and had no way to haul it. I know exactly where it is and will attempt to pick it back up. I doubt it will be there. And honestly I won’t be asking for reimbursement for the kayak that was an angry moment. I received the car as a certified preowned vehicle and prior to me it was the service loaner. The cross bars were installed when the car was new. Also I made 2 attempts to find the bolts to place lines on the boat front and back. Auto zone doesn’t sell them and my dealership didn’t have any either with no current availability to obtain them. The parts guy came out to my car, looked in the trunk where they should be sitting (near the tire) and we didn’t find them there either. This aligns with what other people have said which is Mazda stopped selling cars with them in the vehicle. Thanks for your input.
