Negligence is already something the courts are well suited to handle. Tesla already has a big incentive to do this well. I don't think they are necessarily negligent here for having marketing material which doesn't 100% cover real world usage. If that was ALL the information customers received I would...but I highly doubt that's the case.
I also take issue with the autopilot name as well, but I do think it's something that can be effectively communicated elsewhere with a product like this - where it really isn't that big of a deal. It is not a large barrier to communicate the immature state of the software and the limited current use-cases to each buyer beforehand regardless of branding.
