Official summary

Flash: Inaccurate Outside Temperature Display This bulletin involves updating the Body Control Module (BCM) and the Driver Door Module (DDM) if required. The customer may note that the temperature display will be cooler than the actual outside temperature, up to 10F degree lower. This condition is more noticeable the colder the temperature gets.

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
