Yes, Li-ion fires are truly dangerous. They can be cooled by water but not extinguished with water. Li-ion wins for cars because the energy density is much higher than NiMH... just don't crash it.

For my Samsung Galaxy Note I bought a second original battery, but it has
swollen considerably, so much even that it does fit in my phone anymore.
Although there's a very limited garanty on batteries over here, I got a new
one from Samsung, which works ok.

I had one Samsung phone battery get pregnant. But otherwise, they've
been excellent. But I did have two Brand-X batteries for the E-1 start
to put on some weight.

This makes me wonder why I would want a vehicle with a LiON battery
pack in it. Our Prius uses the less sexy NiMH cells, which behave well
and last forever.
