I had an inline fuse holder fail this summer on my 1206 Farmall. From the looks of it the connector on one side of it was faulty from the factory. The fuse holder was less than a year old. Didn't blow the fuse, none of the rest of the wiring looked like it got warm, just the one connector in the holder. The holder had a soldered on eye connector on one end and the other end was a soldered splice. The fuse holder was made in the land of almost right.
So that being said your receptacle could have been faulty. But I'd almost bet that the installer didn't tighten it down like they were supposed to. My FIL had a lake cabin built about 6 years ago. Watching the crew work was amazing. Mostly younger guys and each one would answer their cell phones every time they rang. I can see where a guy wiring a house could become distracted and not tighten something as well as he should. I'd still check to see if the dryer is pulling too much juice too just to be on the safe side.
