Outside Temprature Reading low?

All of a sudden my outside temprature reading is about 16 degrees low, prior to this it was reasonably accurate. Is there anything I can do to fix it or is it a dealer issue?

Right after a car wash, by any chance? The sensor will experience temp "shock" when hit by cold water, and will often take awhile to recover - sometimes overnight. Otherwise, no clue....

Yes exactly

Yes that is exactly the scenario, and sure enough next day it was back to reasonably accurate.
