the factory might fix it under warranty

In trying to remove a reel stuck on my sage xp 5-weight, I forced it
and ended up bending the (not sure what it's called) ring that screws
up to hold the reel onto the rod.

Any suggestions for how I can fix this... or, if it's not something I
can do myself, where I would get it fixed?

Thanks.
