Explain whether the following examples qualify as misrepresentation, and if so, what type.

Look for the existence of each element of misrepresentation.

a. You see a car advertised for private sale in the newspaper. You ring up the seller and

ask her whether the car has ever been in a serious crash. The seller says that she

thinks it has not, but that she is not certain. You do not question this statement. You

buy the car. Later, you discover It had been in a serious crash.

b. Same scenario as above, except that the seller says that the car definitely has not

been in a crash and you are a used car expert and you thoroughly examine the car

before purchasing it. Later, you discover it had been in a serious crash.

c. Same scenario as above, except that the seller says that the car definitely has not

been in a crash but you don't believe her. Later, you discover it had been in a serious

crash.
