Yes, but it seems that that may have the same issues themselves. Li-ion batteries are notorious for catching on fire. Yes, the sample size is too small to make a determination on Tesla but I suspect they may run into the same issues as Boeing as they sell more cars.

This is why people call you 'shill'. You aren't disagreeing, just using leading speculation. These are specifically not the same issues as Boeing, whose design Musk criticised for ability to produce 'domino effect' fires that get out of control very fast. That did not happen here.

Casting aspersions like 'li-ion are notorious' also stinks, much like the smell of gasoline before it (notoriously) explodes.

Ignoring the facts of the particular case whilst hugely generalising about the technology isn't a good foundation of debate.
