A spark with a megger tester should be able to spot anything untoward happening. Tossing ideas out now, but I'd check for earth leakage- it's not unusual to get some voltage on earth but perhaps a Tesla and those chargers don't play nice and it's making the gate controller unhappy.
To exclude RF issues, buy a tube of pringles, eat them all and remove the bottom from the can. Stand where you can't get the gate to work, then stick the transmitter in the bottom end of the tube and point the business end at the receiver. Might have to walk a bit closer, but the pringles tube will help focus the signal a bit and avoid the handset itself being overwhelmed. Unless it's built into the car then you've just eaten a load of tasty crisps for nothing.
