| Description of the problem | We purchased a new 2007 entourage limited in october 2006. The fuel consumption on this minivan is horrid averaging 16. 8 miles per gallon. The advertised range was 18 mpg in city and 25 in hwy. With mixed city/hwy driving we are experiencing fuel consumption that is not come close to the city fuel consumption advertised by hyundai. Fuel consumption was a big part of our decision to buy this vehicle and it seems the information provided by hyundai was completely deceiving. The dealer told us there is nothing that can be done and we are stuck with this inefficient vehicle. Many other owners reporting the same complaint as shown in various websites i. E. Edmunds.
