Since I bought the car in early October I have monitored my gas mileage pretty closely. Although 90% of my driving is highway (about 28 miles each way to work), my records show that the best mileage I ever got was about 31 mpg. Considering that the car is advertised at 46 mpg highway and 31 mpg city, and even allowing for up to 20% error for the hihgway mileage, I don't seem to come even close. Does anybody else experience similar problems with their Stanza? Is this a normal advertisement trick, or should I take my car in to the dealer and have it worked on? If it is an engine problem, does anybody know what the problem may be ? (The engine seems to be working fine, although it is pretty powerless on cold days.) Please answer by direct mail. Dan Iuster.
