Bad press != major issue.  Sure the FAA grounds aircraft for a little while after defects are located untill they are fixed.   They don&#x27;t scrap the aircraft or ban autopilots. They also do the same thing for mechanical issues.<p>In tesla&#x27;s case it got press as tech news, and they kept selling cars just fine.  Safty issues can impact sales, but that&#x27;s rational and it takes a lot more than a one off.<p>IMO, none of these actually support your viewpoint.
