Default [Q] Splashing/Sloshing sound from gas tank

Hey everyone, sorry if this is the wrong forum, but I wasn't sure exactly which one to post to!

I've recently noticed a splashing/sloshing sound from my TC2's gas tank after I fill it up and parked it at home. I've never heard this before, or on any car in my life.

Is this something I should be worried about and take into the dealership? I've googled this issue and some people say (on other cars atleast) that it's a danger and some sort of baffle within the gas tank is broken off and can damage the fuel pump.

Hmm. I had a slosh sound before but it wasn't my gas tank. It was due to leaves being built up in the draining area from the sunroof. I also noticed water leaking under the glove compartment. I would check that first. I took mine in and it set me back around $200. Hopefully it's nothing serious.
