Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Excessive fuel consumption. 10.8 mpg. kia performed a test with a scan tool and said the readings were within specifications. that was back in march. since then my fuel efficiency increased to 11.7 mpg. i'll be taking it back soon for another test. i've encountered several people on the road with the same complaint, but apparently they have not filed a complaint yet. can anyone investigate this issue and call me back. it appears that the money i saved by purchasing this vehicle, in comparison to other minivans with similar features, i'll be throwing away in gas. thank you sincerely. *la
