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?
For lack of a better term, my Fusion is farting

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:
- Kinked or collasped hose between canister and fuel tank
- Faulty Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor
- Fuel filler cap stuck closed, preventing vacuum relief
