Missing bolts from supports near rear jack points

Can anyone confirm if this is normal? I noticed that I am missing bolts from a support bar right next to the rear jack points. It looks as if there were bolts before but they were removed, wanted to check with anyone here to see if this is normal or not.

From the pictures below look right behind the rear jack points, when on the life they are almost covered.

Well it certainly appears something was there before.

Thanks I can’t be certain when they were removed or why. I will check with the dealer next visit. It’s just strange that if there were bolts there why would they be removed.

Has your engine been out? If one bolt was missing i'd say it wasn't tightened and it fell out. Both missing, someone wasn't paying attention.

Also, looks like you need rear tires
