That was my thinking. That it's some sort of issue with the evaporative emissions system (EES). Either she put too much fuel in and it takes a few seconds to clear the system afterwards, or that there is some sort of issue with the system itself, though that would usually set a code.

Continuting to put fuel in the tank after the nozzle has popped can cause fuel to get pushed into the EES and cause problems like you're seeing.

With the price of gas rounding up the next few cents shouldn't hurt anything, but trying to cram another dollar or three into the tank after the nozzle popps is a bad idea.
