Default Problem pumping gas, pump cuts off immediately as if full - is this aknow problem? (2005)

Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I have a 2005, 6 cylinder,
convertible.
When I got gas last weekend it was half full, I started pumping the
gas but the pump cuts off immediately, as if it were full. By
repeatedly pumping a quick shot of gas before it cuts out I was able
to get $5 dollars worth and I thought at that time the problem was the
pump. Today Im just about completely empty and went to a different gas
station and same problem. I get a quick shot of gas and the pump cuts
out immediately. It took about 15 minutes to fill up half way. Has
anyone else had this problem? Thanks

Known problem
something with the filler neck and a sensor
Dealer may have a recall on it ?

Yes, there is a TSB on that; until you can get it to the dealer for
repair (new tank?), many folks report turning the nozzle upside-down
eases the process.

Hey it is not the pump or the gas tank
it happened to my vehicle and a friend of mines
all you need to do is blow out the venting tube
u can bring it to the mechanic and ask them to blow it out for u for
about $15
or u can do it urself by locating the venting tube in the gas cylinder
where u place the pump, you stick ur finger in there and feel around
for a small hole and then take an aircompressor n blow into it until u
here bubbles. try and u will have the fastest gass fill up since it
started to act up
if you have anymore questions email
