New CX-5 came with shipping bumpers/spacers?

My neighbor knocked on my door today and told me that my dealership forgot to remove the "shipping bumpers" or "shipping spacers" during the PDI. Apparently it's a type of suspension used to prevent the car from shaking too much if it's being transported on a ship or something of that sort. Have you guys ever heard of such thing?

I am by no means a car expert, but my car does seem to be lifted up more than normal and there seems to be a yellow piece around the bumpers over the rear tires (or maybe they are different bumpers altogether). Is it possible that this was missed in the PDI? Have you ever heard of such situation before?

Thanks in advance!

I just realized I sent this to the CX-9 forum. Keeping the post as this probably applies to both models.
