Yep. It's bad on my van. I would love to do mine like Rod's.
Happens to other vehicles too. Here's a part to permanently fix a Comaro/Firebird:

Here's one repair process:
Bent Pinch Weld / Jack Point: Straightening / Fixing Using a Vice Clamp (Scion tC / tC2 / tC2.5) - YouTube

I haven't been able to find a J41602 for sale.
Also, I think our pinchweld flange is deeper than on most vehicles, so the typical lift adapter still bends the flange.
