There could be a number of reasons for excessive fuel consumption.
Any check engine light , anytime?
If driving in the city and the trans never gets out of 2nd gear , over 19 MPH ?
What kind of maintenance has been done? When?
What are you carrying in the vehicle?
Could you expand a little just what was done at the Ford dealer?

Engine work perfectly,I don’t feel any problem when im driving but just gas is a problem...no engine light on my dashboard,but that what you said for 2gear maybe can be a answer...maybe because im working food delivery and you need to stop,pick up the food,stop again,turn off your car,turn on again but still 9-10mpg is to low...

I believe you answered your own question. Stop and go driving will eat up fuel and that could be why.
