Editor’s note: This story includes disturbing descriptions of sexual assault and harassment allegations.
Andrea Busha of Canton, Michigan, isn't the first in her family to work at Ford Motor Co. but, unlike the generations before her, hopes of retiring from the iconic automaker have been ruined.
She filed a lawsuit against Ford on June 12, 2019, alleging sexual assault, harassment, retaliation and a hostile work environment at the company's assembly plant in Dearborn, Michigan, which builds the bestselling F-150 pickup.
