2 Tank Filler Pipe And Cap problem of the 2002 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 12/01/2011

Not many seem to know the solution here. After much research online and going to a mechanic site. . . I spent $250 on a canister,,, valve. . . And filter. . . That was suppose to fix the problem. No go there. So now I much contact Hyundai again. . . . After their only advice was to bring it to a dealer. The dealer sold me the parts and said that this would fix it. Just want to point out that there are many consumer's online that are searching for an answer. Imagine all of a sudden. . . . Your car that you have maintained and kept in good shape. . . No longer lets you put gas in the tank.

5 Tank Filler Pipe And Cap problem of the 2002 Hyundai Sonata

Failure Date: 09/26/2009

Engine light keeps coming on. Took for repair and the code states there is a problem with the air/fuel mixture. Auto repair shop asked if we turned the gas cap atleast 3 turns after last fill--yes we did. We previously were not able to pump gas the pump would shut off everytime we tried to pump. Auto repair replaced charcoal filters in the neck of the fuel tank has run fine since this engine light started.

Cut valve in gas tank neck failed. When fueling vehicle gas would shut off within 2 seconds, attempting to fuel again gas would shoot out splashing gas on you. Quickly moving out of the way I broke off the cover plate to fuel cap.

Fuel tank has developed cracks and a fuel smell is present. 1) in Dec 2000 and Mar 2001 fuel tank replaced because of cracks on top of fuel tank; 2) in April 2001 service for recall 00v314001 was performed; 3) in October 2001 fuel was leaking from a seal between fuel tank and a pipe, leading to engine, resulting in fuel tank being replaced for fourth time and 4) in November 2001 fuel smell was present again and dealership was diagnosing the problem. The fuel gauge operation stays on full then drops drastically due to fuel sender/pump failure. The dealer replaced the gas tank cap. The check engine light comes on due to purge valve failure.
