The gas mileage on my Prius has slowly declined from about 40 mpg when I

today. Has anyone else noticed this?
Any ideas why? It could, of course, be just that I'm paying less
attention to driving for good gas mileage, or have let the pressure in
the tires go down, but I don't think so.
Thanks - jon
Hello Everyone
I hope this doesn't seem off topic... But my wife told me about this:

Well, the recall does relate to the proper/improper functioning of the gas
pedal...
Probably the cause of the poor mileage, is your accelerator stuck at full
throttle? This will burn extra gas.
Related: I have had throttle return springs break, similar result. Does not
prevent turning off engine (one click only, don't lock the steering), or using
neutral. That is a serious suggestion, follow the Douglas Adams "Don't panic"
rule. Repairs are cheaper than funerals.
