Sloshing sound from fuel tank after filling up?Is it normal?

Hey guys have had my 2018 tlx for about 7 months now,normally have radio on or loud kids in car,but other morning while backing out drive way i heard this sloshing sound from rear after car had stopped,so got out and kinda shook rear of car and can clearly hear fuel sloshing from outside car,was wondering if this is a normal occurence, just got car back couple of weeks ago from having acura repaint the hood,dont really wanna bug them about this especially If its noraml.

I'm sure you can, I've heard it before on other cars, can't recall if I've heard it on the TLX. There are baffles in the tank, but I assume depending on how much gas in the tank and how fast you come to a stop, liquid will slosh.

Its normal. When my car is full or close I hear it at low speeds.
