My outside temp is not accurate
Display always reads about 5* higher than actual temp.

Anyone else have this issue?

If it has fallen out of the mounting bracket, it could be reading heat from whatever it's hanging next to

if you are checking a website for ambient temp, most likely it will differ from the reading on the car.

you many want to unplug the sensor and plug it back in. After doing this it will take a while for the temp to return to ambient. it may solve the problem

You might be reading the rectal thermometer probe.

Is this an option? I'm saddened mine doesn't have that.

The dealer will install it if you take it in for repairs.
