2004 Elantra.

Had it in to the dealer several times for a "Check Engine Light". They
said it's a P0449 code.

History follows:

05/24/05 - Performed a Service Engine Scan. Found one history code
leading to Evap system. Cleared and tested. Customer to
monitor

05/27/05 - Failure Code P0449
Cause: Fuel tube hose was split allowing water into the purge
cannister and cannister filter
Correction: Replace hose and drain water from the cannister
filter

06/01/05 - Cause: Diagnostic Code P0449 Vent Valve circuit cannister
close valve innop.
Correction: Replaced valve

Since that time, the Check Engine Light has been on and off quite a
few times. The car is running fine, but I worry that the light being
on renders it useless, as it could mask other problems that might show
up. This whole thing started not too long after the car was rear-ended
and repaired.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
