Great oem product at great price, bend is normal and easy to manipulate.
Perfect. Mine had the weird bend at the top too. NO BIG DEAL... all u need to do is center the assembly on your door (tip: line up to old screw holes). Install the closest screw above and below the assembly. Then work your way up or down screwing from the center out. Leave the first few screws snug but not tight and it will help it line itself up with proceeding screws. Then slightly bend the piece back where the bend is but do it softly and don't hulk it. Then hold it in place and tap it hard with a soft object, I used a rubber coated tape measure, Straightened right up. Then screw it and it will suck it tight. Super easy and the bend is normal. Added 35 seconds of work. I have included a picture of the area that was bent and it looks perfect.

Perfect fit and Easy to Install
The Andersen Fwh68 Hinged Door - (Active Door Panel) 3-point Lock Mechanism (1988 to Present) arrived in a long narrow cardboard box and had with a slight bow in it just as others reviewers have described. After examining the part I believe it probably comes from the factory that way and may not be due to handling. I placed it on my marble kitchen island and gently straightened it out leaving some curve in it to help pull it tight to the down when fastened to the door with the seven or eight screw required. I lubricated it a little before installing. It's ten minute job taking your time and fits perfectly, works very freely, a operate much easier than the old one. I'm very pleased with this product!

Fit perfectly and works well
This is an exact replacement that took about 15 minutes to install and it works like the original one did when new. I only gave it 4 starts due to cost. My original one failed out of warranty due to a small broken spring that probably costs 10 cents and can't be replaced because the whole lock assembly is riveted together. Look on the internet and you will find a number of people complaining about this failure mode. The lock should be redesigned to allow easy replacement of the spring or change the design. If I could have put a standard handle set on the door I would have.
