    I just bought my 2013 hyundai Elantra sedan limited on October 5th. At first the mikeage was okay but certainly no where near the estimate. I took it on a trip to the central coast of California and it got about 33 mpg. However most of my driving is in town and back and forth to work (6 miles round trip) and i am not getting better than 16 mpg. Needless to say i am angry. I got rid of a gas guzzler and bought this car because of its mileage claims and claims o be reliable. I am definitely going after them with all i have. This is fraud
