I only have my own experience to draw upon, so I may be an outlier, but I didn't buy a Tesla because of its Autopilot feature. If they pulled the feature today, I'd be totally fine with that. As a user of Autopilot, it's absolutely insane to me that anyone would blame Autopilot for a wreck. It's like a "smart" cruise control, except unlike cruise control, it gives you all sorts of warnings about your role as the driver and will shut itself off if it thinks you're not paying attention. Any one blaming Autopilot for a Tesla wreck is either trying to sensationalize, or is just completely inept or lying.

Many many people paid $1000+ for the promise of Full Self-Driving that doesn't exist. People definitely care about the Autopilot feature a lot more than you. > It's like a "smart" cruise control Except they call it Autopilot! You can't call something Autopilot and then blame people for expecting the car to drive itself. Call it lane assist or cruise control plus or something.
