My electric front load dryer looks like is working, but actually is not drying and when you stop to check the area next to the door is really hot!! What can be the reason.

The area just inside the door is supposed to be hot, that is where the element is on this model. Put your hand over the rear vent while it is running & see if you can feel any air blowing out of it. If not then remove the belt plastic cover on the rear of the dryer & check the belt. May be broken or just come off.
