OBC temp

So I'm driving down the road yesterday and notice my A/C has slowed down it was about 90F outside so i scroll through the OBC display and the temp was reading 122F . So something is wrong so I start to slow down from 70mph to 60 mph and it starts to drop all the way down to 88F and the A/C starts working again. My question is where is the temp sensor for the OBC? I must be getting hot air from the engine bay some how.

it is on the driver's side, behind the lower grill. There is a plastic clip that holds it in place; it looks like a plastic probe at the end of a wire. If the bumber cover is removed you need to disconnect it.... Easy to knock loose if playing around down there.
