Description of the problem | 2017 genesis g80, all wheel drive, 3. 8 l engine. Car was being driven on a 4 lane expressway in heavy, rush hour traffic using advanced cruise control set near speed limit. G80 was in the left lane attempting to pass a vehicle on the right. There was a vehicle ahead of the g80. Driver noticed another vehicle coming up fast from behind until it was very close to the rear of the g80.
