What does "material fact" mean?

  1. A material fact is information that might affect the consumer's decision to buy the vehicle if they knew about it.

  2. A material fact is information that might affect the business's decision to buy the vehicle if they knew about it.

  3. A material fact is information regarding a vehicle that lowers its sale price

  4. A material fact is information that impacts a business's standing

The correct answer is: A material fact is information that might affect the consumer's decision to buy the vehicle if they knew about it.

A material fact is any information that could significantly influence a consumer's decision to purchase a vehicle. This could include information about a car's history, condition, or potential defects. Option B is incorrect because material facts are relevant to consumers, not just businesses. Option C is incorrect because a material fact can raise or lower a vehicle's sale price, not just lower it. Option D is also incorrect because material facts are not limited to impacting a business's standing, but rather the consumer's decision to buy the vehicle.
