Description of the problem	The vehicle has never displayed correct mpg. The digital read out that "tells" you your average mileage is always 2 or 3 miles off the actual mpg. I reset all the settings every fuel up. It 'tells" me i'm averaging 21 mpg, but when i check it multiple times it's actually 18mpg. The vehicle is supposed to ge 21/29 and i now have 15,000 miles on the car and i've never gotten more than 19 in town or about 27 on the road and those are few and far between. Yet, the gage is always inaccurate by 2 to 3 mpg. I feel that is very deceiving. If you didn't check it yourself, you would think it's getting the gas mileage it's supposed to, but the readouts are wrong. I don't know if it's deliberate or a calibration issue. I took it to the dealer, but they claim everything is fine. If i'm supposed to file this complaint with another agency, please let me know.
