Xfi pod overheating

I just discovered that the outlet where my Xfi pod was plugged into was extremely hot to the touch and the plastic cover to the outlet is scorched. It caused extreme heat to the wall above the outlet. It seems the outlet has been damaged to the point where it is unsafe to have the power on and it appears this issue has caused damaged to the wiring within the outlet making it a fire hazard when the power is on, even without anything plugged into it. I have turned off the power and have called an electrician. Looking at past posts, it appears this is a serious issue with this product. Since the most recent post about this is from July 2023, I am posting to document my experience and to report that this product continues to be an ongoing fire hazard that could cause someone serious harm. I am also curious to hear if anyone else has recently had the same problem and if Xfinity has addressed this. It sounds like Xfinity’s response is to tell folks to inquire about a return. Obviously this is a much bigger issue that won’t be addressed with an exchange or return.
