I would contact Apple. They should want to examine both the charger and remains of the iPhone:

They blow up also. Any device with a Lithium battery has a (small) chance of expanding or catching fire. Samsung had to withdraw a tablet model because many of the them caught fire, one actually on an airplane. That’s why the US FAA has banned all devices with Lithium batteries from checked luggage, on the theory that a fire in an airline cabin can be controlled, but not one in the cargo compartment. If you are that concerned you will have to give up having a mobile phone, because they all use Lithium batteries.
