Awning Lights "Twisted"

Just pulled in from a 3 day golf outing, camping at Wasatch State Park. Happened to notice the LED light strip attached under the awning is twisted in several places. I inspected and cannot see where the strip is detaching just the plastic channel is twisting. Wondering if anyone else has seen this and if it needs attention. I just thought I'd had one too many but the light strip really does have a snake effect.

I've seen that a few times. Customers seem to just live with it.

Thanks Chuck, Can't see any way to "fix" it and can't see where it's going to cause any problems. Can't see it at all with the awning in

I don't believe there is any fix other than replacement. We have done a couple under warranty, but I'm of the opinion that the thin plastic it's made out of is heat sensitive and will probably do it again.

Definitely been hot here! I was guessing it might be heat related.
Appreciate the feedback
