2014 Toyota 4Runner Fuel System Problems

Fuel level sensor in gas tank not working properly

I notice my gas wasn't lasting long. One day I was pumping gas and noticed that underneath my 4-runner gas was pouring out from the top of my fuel tank. Took it to the dealership and they repaired the charcoal canister, canister assembly and purge valve assembly. Cost me $953.48 with parts and labor. Very dangerous due to it could have started a fire while driving.

Car would have trouble starting. Once i got it to start it would stall when stopped
