Doesn't look normal. Maybe the result of improper lifting?

I’d agree. I’ve lifted my car a couple times using the puck.
Any suggestions for diy remedies?

Looks like result of an improper lift, happens more often than you would think

You can fix it yourself - it is not for the feint of heart though. Lots of beating and bending. The fitters at the plant are like artists - they know just where to slam the door on a rubber mallet to bend everything back, and other scary things like that. If the door closes fine and doesn't leak or rub, I would leave it.
