Always Broken
Would you be so dismissive if it was a servicing schedule that was mis-apostrophised and your airframe ended up with 2 widgets being fitted instead of 4?
That said I’ve been fixing things slightly longer than you’ve been breaking them and have never had a problem with an aberrant apostrophe (to my knowledge), possibly because I understand how to use them.
These days I spend my time reading and writing rather than getting my hands dirty and totally support Pontius's POV:

My local council has just built a new entrance into the tip, the 2 lanes are marked, CARS - H.G.V'S!!!
Happy Christmas and keep safe.
It's still not working.
