Mine's been bent twice. Both times was able to fix with just some pliers to pry the tab back straight. It sure does **** me off when I warn them about it before yet it still happens.

I'll admit that I did this on my car, with the cheap GM scissor jack when I had a flat. I wasn't as lucky as everyone else though. Car went up with no problem, than as I was going to take the lug nuts off it the car dropped and the jack stayed where it was cause almost $3k in damage. Cracked the fender about an inch and had to be replaced and painted. I'm going to back a better jack to replace the GM piece and definately make sure I watch extra close from now on if I ever get a flat.
