When a dealer sells a car that was previously a daily rental to a customer, what must they disclose about the vehicle’s history?

  1. That it was once a rental

  2. That it had previous rental usage

  3. Nothing needs to be disclosed

  4. That it was part of a fleet

The correct answer is: That it was once a rental

When a dealer sells a car that was previously a daily rental to a customer, they must disclose that it was once a rental because this information can affect the value and condition of the vehicle. B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not fully disclose the vehicle's history and potential issues. For example, simply saying "previous rental usage" or "part of a fleet" does not inform the customer that the car may have been driven more frequently and potentially subject to more wear and tear than a typical privately owned vehicle. Not disclosing anything is also incorrect because it could be considered misleading and dishonest.
