Other Fuel System Hoses Lines/piping, And Fittings Problems of Hyundai Elantra

The check engine light came on when I started up the car one morning in early may; ended up getting a new gas cap. 24 hours later, check engine light comes on again when I start up the car. After smoke testing for leaks, got the purge valve replaced. 24 hours later, check engine light comes on again while I'm at a stop light. Waited couple months due to no income during pandemic. Code was the same regarding emissions issues; another smoke test revealed faulty vent canister valve. Got it replaced and drove fine for an hour. Few hours later, the light came back on once again while I'm accelerating after a turn. The mechanic that installed the vcv checked the part as well as the purge valve and noticed neither part were functioning as needed. He stated potential ecu issue or faulty fuel tank pressure sensor with the likelihood of the latter being the most likely cause. I did not okay work on either part; he did what he could and the light went off. When I came to a stop light, the check engine light came of yet again. Nhtsa recall shows 08v429000 (and a separate 08v694000 for puerto rico) that appears to coincide with my issues as well as that of many others (based on research). My VIN does not show as being part of the recall, however. I question whether Hyundai fully disclosed the full list of the potential cars affected by a faulty fuel pump motor.

Safety recall on the 1997 Hyundai Elantra wagon regarding excessive fuel pressure in the gas tank was initiated in 2001. As an owner of such vehicle, I responded and received in the mail a new gas cap. . . . . . . . . And was informed that was the fix. The tank was never checked for cracks or even if the pressure was corrected by the new gas cap.
