Talking Bought a Used 2006 Accord (six months ago)

Hello,
I have been driving this used Honda Accord i purchased with 78k on it. I am now having a couple of issues and I can't seem to figure it out.

I was told that it was in good condition and it is, but for the past couple of months, things are going downhill:

1) I have been trying to figure out how much gas I am getting per mile and the numbers are crazy bad.I am getting about 17 miles per gallon mostly city driving. How come the numbers are so bad? I has an SUV and I was getting better mileage.

2) The other issue that started is that when the car is on and I close the drivers side door, all the doors lock and unlock 2x then they all lock. Something wrong but don't know what. The remote doesn't unlock all the doors anymore. The only door that unlocks is the drivers side. and I can't lower the windows with the remote anymore.

If anyone can shine some light to help, will really appreciate it.

Was the car water damaged? Contact the dealer regarding the door locks. I know of other Honda models around that general year where they are replacing the door lock actuators due to random door lock issues, but I don't not know if you car is involved, so let them answer that question for you. Nothing but a simple call.

As far as fuel consumption we hear from many about great MPG and for others with low MPG and since you said city and 17MPG I would be inclined to say that it is more driving style and habits then the car.
