If I take my 2022 XL thru the car was and get the premium wash the external temp goes nuts. Regular wash no problem. Premium wash sprays water up under the car. My thoughts are the sensor is getting water in the connector. I have a bunch of recalls to have done. Adding this to the warranty repair list.

Maybe you should spray paint your dash since none of that information is useful! 😂😂😂
Don't laugh! When I got my drivers license in 1958, I looked at the speedometer and the gas gauge. Now, some years later, I STILL only look at the speedometer and the gas gauge. The rest is just stuff that can go wrong.
Anecdote: I remember our first car that had a clock on the dash. It was my Dad's 1947 Ford. It NEVER had the right time. When it finally stopped my Dad said, "Well, now it is right two times a day."

My dash Trmpersture says 76 degrees but it is actually 46 degrees
How do you fix that?

warranty?
Mine started doing the same thing just now. I had this issue two months after I bought it new, just before Christmas, 2021. I took it to the dealer, but because the truck was warmed up (I live an hour from the dealer), they had me return it the next morning, loaned me a car, ordered the part, and when the part came in, they brought a loaner to my home, and kept it for almost a week, to make sure it was fixed. Turned out to be a sensor/wiring issue.

Now, 2 ½ years later, it's showing 22º outside, and it's actually close to 70º. I tried both the AC and the heater and. neither of them seems to be putting out the high or low temperatures it normally does.

A call to the dealer coming up.
