Tesla cars are resold privately every day and no one reported that the autopilot was removed. Also the story was corrected and the sticker applied to the original sale of the car (the car was returned to Tesla), not to the sale of the then used car by Tesla to the dealer.

I'm reading the story now and don't see that in there anywhere.
That said, it's clear that the sticker describes the car and the price from the original sale. It's not clear whether that sticker was also displayed at the auction, and now that you mention it, the story doesn't say.
But I've bought cars at auction before and they were always sold as-is. I'd be livid if the seller broke in a few days later and sabotaged a feature on a car I bought as-is, with the excuse "we didn't mean to include that feature".
That should be something Tesla and that dealer need to work out. What is written in the sales contract and what rights come from the fact, that the car was handed over with the autopilot being active. That is what lawyers are for :).
