Noisy acceleration and MPG

I have two problems with my 2013 Elantra sedan with 1400 miles.

1. As others say, I also have mpg of about 22-23 in city with much stop and go only after 3 months. The dealer said that this is the break in period and to wait another 1000 miles for it to improve. That sounds like an excuse but I will see. I will complain and if needed, sell the car in a year or two. It wasn't my first choice anyway. Basically I like the car.

2. This is the noisiest new car I have ever driven and I have driven over 20 different ones on vacations over many years.
The noise is from accelerating-- all the time. Does anyone else hear this and does it bother you? It started from day one.
