Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 2001 Hyundai Santa Fe

When getting gas, the pump always 'clicks off' when im pumping gas. Does not matter how full. The only way to ensure a full tank is to continue pumping until gas comes out the top of the filler neck. This usually means overriding as many as 50 pump 'click offs'. I have seen other Santa Fe owners complaining about the same problem obviously this is a manufacturing flaw & needs to be fixed. This method of getting a full tank is not desirable and what's the point of having a 17 gallon gas tank if it takes 45minutes to fill up. Thank you.
