Possible scenario A: Teslas have a fundamental flaw that causes a single driver to have several accidents. Multiplied by the number of Tesla drivers who use Autopilot, there must be hundreds of thousands of unreported and uninvestigated auto-pilot accidents. Most certainly a conspiratorial cover-up by Tesla, the NTSB, and the NHTSA.

Possible scenario B: The driver of the Tesla has misrepresented or misunderstood the facts of the situation.

Possible scenario C: The driver of the Tesla doesn't know that she should take her foot off the accelerator pedal when using Autopilot.

I suppose any of these (or several other) scenarios are at least possible. I'd probably apply Hanlon's razor here before anything else.
