it could be a bad EVAP Canister, the purpose is to send vapors to the canister instead of the air when you are refueling. If it's plugged up it will not allow vapors to escape fast enough and cause the pump to shut off. You may also a kinked hose going to the evap canister.

Kia seem to have allot of the cars with this problem, After it's fixed, DO NOT FORCE ANY MORE GAS THEN WHAT THE TANK HOLDS...
