Tesla vehicles have a LOT of telemetry, which the company has used to establish fault for accidents and damage. I wouldn't be surprised if many of these cases involve the driver being less than forthcoming about what was happening when the damage occurred.
Technology Review covered this back in 2016 after a driver falsely claimed their Model X crashed into a wall on its own.
