I went to look at a 93 240 hatchback and i was inspecting the jack tabs and found that two were bent and one was bent flat. Is this a major issue? Can this be fixed by a body shop?

Thanks

I think they all bend over time. I know mine are bent, and were when I bought it. Not a problem.

yeah thats probably from someone using shop jack (or any other jack that did not come with the car) to lift up the car, the tab rests on the jack and gets bent. nothing to worry about.
