I just recently bought a '07 liberty sport 4x4 with 15,500 miles. Since I have had it I have been tracking my fuel mileage and have been getting about 12-14 mpg. I think that is totally crazy, I could have bought a Suburban and done better on gas. I have checked all the usual stuff, tire pressure 35psi, clean air filter, changed oil to Mobil 1. Most of my driving is highway with some city mixed in. very easy with the gas pedal try not to go over 2-2500rpm.
I filled the tank all the way full last week and tonight when I went out I had gone 45 miles since and was just about 3/4 full. I filled back up to full using the same pump and put in 3.7 gal = 12.1 mpg. This is not even close to the advertised numbers or what alot of you seem to be getting.
My question is do I have a reason to take it to the dealer and have it looked at. In my opinion there is no reason for this kind of mileage even with winter gas. This is a relatively small vehicle with a mid-size motor. Thanks is advance for the help.
