Well, the Chevy Volts' lithium ion batteries also have fire issues too. Not to mention overheated laptops with li-ion batteries that have caught on fire.

We're still waiting on any categorical information from you, other than your baseless fears stemming from problems with wholly different companies using similar technology.

News, Every car has batteries that are potential fire/explosion/acid explosions.

I've seen a standard 12v lead acid battery evaporating/boiling hydrochloric acid out of its vent holes, I've also seen one smoking about to explode.
