Shower drain pipe: Is this normal?

[John and Jodi]

I'm not very handy so I haven't looked a lot under and around the bowels of our trailer, but recently I had an occasion to do so. Looking at my shower drain pipe I saw this:

It appears that the 1.5 inch drain line has collapsed. The shower still drains slowly and there's no leaks (yet?), but I'm a bit shocked. While the pipe from the shower pan is vertical, the connection to the gray tank(?) pipe appears to be at a 45 degree angle so that buying a new P Trap doesn't appear to be a good option unless I'm willing to re-plump.

Is this normal? I'm open for suggestions.

Looks like they installed a flexible tube and left a twist in it.  You might try loosening a clamp and twisting the kink out.  Unfortunately that kink could be set and it seems like too a tight bend even for a replacement piece.  Oliver should address that despite the expired warranty, it was just a poor installation from the start.

Good luck, Geoff

Can we assume that you purchased this Ollie "new"?

I've never seen that kind of installation.

Yes. New from the factory in 2022.
