Woman Wins Lawsuit Against Honda Over Disappointing Fuel Economy

Woman Sues Honda Over Gas-Guzzling Car, And Wins

Honda presented misleading information to the owner of a 2006 Civic Hybrid when it claimed the car could get as many as 50 miles per gallon, according to a legal ruling issued Wednesday.

Heather Peters, a Los Angeles resident, said her Civic achieved far less than that, and sued American Honda Motor Co. in Los Angeles Small Claims Court.
