When filling with gas, pump cuts off

+1. Had mine replaced. Works perfectly about 98% of the time but can be problematic at certain pumps in very hot weather.

F-Typers,
Did anyone else have the dealer-performed fix for the "cuts off at the fuel pump" issue done, and it didn't work? That's the position I find myself in with my 2016 Base. Only tried one fill up after the "fix"; will try again soon to collect more data before calling the dealership again.
Quite annoying. How hard can it be to design a usable gas tank for a car in the 21st century?

So I'm one for two:
the Shell by me: problem is just as bad as originally
the Chevron by me: the fix worked
Thanks also for others' feedback on this issue.

Ditto w/ Steve/Lizzardo.... I would say it works slightly better. Not totally sure what the update was, but it involved something somewhat extensive. It wasn't just an easy replacement... but it seems to work better now. It's true that it probably depends on the gas station too....

Ok, so I had the same issue yesterday and again today at Chevron. Tried to fill it up on the lowest setting, but it keeps clicking off. Today, filled it again and it clicked off after 5 gallons and eventually was filled up at 8 gallons.
I see a TSB, but my car is a MY17 bought a month ago. Can I assume it already has the new part or ant suggestions?
Thanks

17jag,
This happens to my XKR on a regular basis but only at certain gas stations that use a particular type of nozzle. It is a pain in the ****. Sometimes, if I turn the nozzle upside down with the "trigger" facing up, it changes the angle of the tube entering the tank and I can get it to fill without the stops and starts.

I took my f-type in to the dealer a couple of weeks ago to have them evaluate a fuel level sensor issue. While evaluating the car and researching history, they informed me that the wrong filler neck upgrade had been performed three years ago and they were going to redo it with the now 'correct' parts. We'll see... still waiting to get car back.
