Tesla sells cars to rich people, they have a lot less interaction with the common populace than Uber does.
Uber is seen as a taxi-replacement, and everyone uses taxis.
They're even trying to get into delivery services, so anytime you order Pizza, you might hear the Uber name.'
Additionally the criticism of Uber is spearheaded by their competitors who already didn't like them. The taxi union of NYC has been broadly critical leading to the #deleteUber hashtag, but taxis who are being driven out of business by Uber were already inclined to oppose them.
Tesla on the other hand doesn't have as much existing organized opposition with connections to the broad public masses. Who hates Tesla? Car dealerships who have statutory privilege, but everyone already dislikes car salesmen.
