My brother in law wrecked his volvo's scissors jack by putting in on the wrong spot at an angle. They are made from stamped sheet metal and designed to work only in the correct position. The thing crumpled up and I had to bring my shop jack out to change his flat.Unibody cars with pinch wield or lift points make it difficult to put the larger 2+ ton jacks along with their jack stands underneath. Usually not enough room with them side by side.
I get to have joy of lifting the vehicle for the first time swapping from Winters to All-Seasons.
The included jack should only be used in emergencies, IMO, and not for regularly changing the tire over or maintenance. Even with dedicated jack and stands hearing the creaks can make your ass pucker.
I don't trust them at all.
