So, an update to this issue. Still haven't taken it to a dealer (poor like that). Monday morning, on my way to Dialysis, the check engine light came on. When I got home, I hooked up an ODB reader to the car and found it was displaying a P1450 error code. Looking this up revealed the following: P1450 Ford - Unable to Bleed Up Bleed Fuel Tank VacuumPossible causes - Blocked EVAP canister or vent solenoid - Kinked or collasped hose between canister and fuel tank - Faulty Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor - Fuel filler cap stuck closed, preventing vacuum relief I Reset the code, and it hasn't come back yet. The car has farted once, and when I got gas today, it was hard to start. It seems to happen more when the ambient temp goes down like it has been in the mornings of late. I'll be taking it in to get checked out in a week or so. In the mean time, when it farts I stop and stick my finger in the filler cap to release some of the air.

2013 Fusion SE, 81000 miles. When driving, I sometimes hear a noise coming from the vicinity of the gas filler. The noise sounds for all the world like the car is passing gas. Last night I heard it, and when I pulled into a service station I opened the filler door. I pushed on the opening to the tank, and sure enough it sounded like a big fart. It seems pressure is building up in the tank, and it causes the filler tube flaps to vibrate. Possibly related, every time I stop to get gas the car is hard to start and runs rough for a few seconds after. Every time. Any ideas on a solution to this?
