I bought a used 2007 400h two years ago in good condition well maintained but I’ve never received more than 22mpg. What is the problem as I thought being a hybrid I’d get better mileage?

Hi Cheryl.....welcome to the Club

These are the economy figures below and yours is definitely running low on mpg figures.
I would recommend servicing the engine to ensure that everything is running efficiently....engine oil and filter, speak plugs, check leads/coils, fuel and air filter.
If these components have been replaced recently or you can replace them shortly then this may bring the mpg back to where it should be.
Also, check you tire pressures are correct as this will drag the economy down
