I was vacing the living room today & all of a sudden the hose handle was getting VERY hot. When I turned the vac power off sparks flew out from the hose handle switch (it gave me electric shock) Then the handle caught fire (I was using the power nozzle) The hose handle & upper wand melted at the hose/wand connection Has any TriStar owner had similar experience? Its the A101 series (Aerus/Electrolux made TriStar vacuums Should I just buy a new hose or will my vac need serviced? I take good care of the vacuum & use genuine parts I purchased the TriStar CS canister vacuum brand new in 2012 UPDATE: I called TriStar & they will be sending me a new hose. I should be getting it by Thursday
