Description of the problem	I purchased the 2010 hyundai santa fe new with only 60 miles on it in june 2010. In january 2011 we began smelling a fuel smell. This occurred only after the car was running and shut off then subsequently turned back on less than an hour later like when running errands. I never smelled gas if the car sat overnight. We also would experience an intermittent long crank. I brought the car to the dealer in january 2011 and they replaced 2 o-rings that they stated were leaking and found fuel around. After these were replaced, i still had the same problems. I brought the car back in february 2011 and no known problems were found by the dealer. Again, i brought the car back in march. This time they found fuel in the charcoal canister. They stated i was overfilling the tank which was why there was fuel in the charcoal canister. After speaking with the manager, they agreed to cover the part and labor at no charge and replaced the charcoal canister. After this was replaced, i no longer experienced the long crank but i still smell gas after running errands. Hyundai will again be looking at the car for any other problems, but the dealer is really stumped so far on this.
