Intermittent hard start after fueling

I've had this truck for almost about 6 months and during that time, I've had 3 occasions where after getting gas it was hard to start. It would crank for maybe 5-6 seconds then fire up. This morning after filling up it was very hard to start then didn't want to stay running. It finally came to life and stayed running. Got home, shut it of and started it twice and it was fine.
Anybody else hear of or have this problem. Thanks.

depending on how handy it was for me, i would run it into the dealer, explain the prob and have them check for codes.

i bet the probability is high that they know about the problem.

me I have never heard of it.
