These are not similar cases at all. Any competent engineer can work through the iPhone bugs and fix them. That's well-trodden ground, the sort of thing thousands of engineers do each day. Fixing a self-driving neural network is a research topic. Even years later it's not a fully solved problem, and that should have been clear in 2016.
And of course they fixed them before the public release of the product (or shortly after).
Teslas FSD is released for years (which they call beta for marketing / libility) and is still missing a lot of features (including the ability to work without human oversight) and being quite buggy on others.
