Get some money back: [https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2014/06/12/ford-motor-company-lowers-fuel-economy-ratings--for-six-vehicles.html](https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2014/06/12/ford-motor-company-lowers-fuel-economy-ratings--for-six-vehicles.html)

It’s mostly for hybrids, but that $1,050 pay back for an MKZ isn’t anything to scoff at.

This is just because they screwed up the advertized MPGs, not because people are dying though.

Ford - we slightly inflated mpg on the window sticker, here is some money back for your troubles

just covering their ass to avoid a class action lawsuit. Hyundai got sued for inflating mpg ratings not too long ago.

And I think the GM thing is as inflated as the Toyota floor mat issue.
