Chosen Solution
I dropped my computed and it landed on the metal leg of my computer stand just right to bend the aluminum frame right on the sd card slot. I was able to get my camera card out but don’t want to risk sticking a screwdriver in the slot to try to open up the space again and actually damage the card slot. The top half of the slot is OK it’s just the bottom half that is bent up just enough to keep the card from going in easily. Suggestions?
Reshaping aluminum is finicky and very prone to error unless you have a steady hand - that’s why it’s generally better to live with minor dents that are purely cosmetic then to try and fix them. However, you may need to replace the chassis anyway, which makes it no harm no foul if you can afford the system downtime to try. Use a wide head flathead screwdriver and a rubber mallet to avoid doing significant damage if you find it’s too difficult. Tear the system down with the guide @danj linked, and then see if you can do it. If you find it’s too difficult, have someone who will get it right have a shot at it or replace the chassis.
You’ll need to first take out the I/O board, then you can carefully reshape the slot area MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Mid 2014 I/O Board Replacement
