When pumping gas I can only pump about $1.50 worth of gas at a time before it starts coming back out and spilling everywhere. I have tried pumping gas with the car on, not safe I know, and it still only takes about $1.50 before it comes back out. I have spoken to multiple Elantra owners and they all have the same issue. It takes about 20 minutes to fill up. The more gas you get in your tank, the less you can pump. From the research I have done online it's that the evap canistor has failed and it's pushing charcoal thru the fuel lines. What if that gets into the fuel tank and the pump sucks it up? don't think that would be a good thing. But the gas that comes out is starting to eat away the paint because it does it multiple times each time I'm refueling. My vehicle has high miles but alot of people that have this issue say they have below 100K miles.

It is hard to fill the gas tank up. The fuel pump keeps shutting off and you have to slowly fill the gas tank up. You have to hold the pump to even get gas to fill the tank.

After refueling, the car has difficulty starting. The car stall like it has flooded. After numerous attempts trying to start the car (the car sputters), it finally starts. There are several other Hyundai Elantra owners in this area have the same problem. The car initial started with difficulty refueling. After putting in 0.25 - $1 worth of gasoline, the pump would click off. Refueling could take up to 5-10 minutes to fill the tank. I have spent over $500 dollars trying to fix the problem. I have called Hyundai of America and received little to no assistance.

My fuel tank assembly valve. It takes me a very long time to pump gas because the car shuts the pump off like my tank is already full. I even had gas spill out while I was still pumping. I started to become very concerned when I did a little research on this particular incident. What really got me concerned is when it said if this problem is not taken care of, if I were to get into an accident and my car overturned, it could potentially catch a fire! I have two children, and god forbid something like this happen when im in my car with my children.
