Is your gas gauge working properly? It sounds like you have a full tank. There are some pumps that have dirty nozzles that shut off at full volume, but a filler neck that gets clogged with gas is not normal. If it is full, the charcoal container will fill up with about 1 quart of gas and then overflow and set off error codes.
Fill a spare gas tank and strap it down nice and secure and go for an hour's drive - about 3 gallons. Then tank up again at a gas station and check the amount.
