Lasers do not bend, per se. If you have some sort of distortion of the beam, then the reflector is faulty or damaged. If the beam is slanted then the gimble assembly is not hanging straight.
In either case these are throw away units. Go back to the retailer and see if they have a solution. Or call Black and Decker and see if they will replace it for you.

Laser diodes are no like light bulbs. When a light bulb burns out, it goes black. When a laser diode burns out, it goes to an extreme low power state. You can see red at the source, but there is no beam to speak of. If this is what you're seeing, then contact Dewalt. They are low quality instruments, but will try there best to get you a new one, at a reasonable price.

All based on marketing technical decisions and differences.
Laser's do fail, and that is what is going on here.

The line is like a big arc, as if the light is going through a prism.
