According to the published numbers the 3.3 in 2009 is slightly more fuel efficient than the previous years so there must be a problem there. Sounds like a visit to the dealer will be in order as you might have a faulty unit.

I thought it merely applied the 'avergage mile per gallon rating' to the amount of fuel estimated in the tank, giving you a total mileage estimate. Is your average MPG lower in the new car?
