Which of the following best describes an unconscionable representation?

Must involve emotional distress
Involves a customer who has no conscience
May involve taking advantage of a consumer who cannot protect his or her own interests
Must involve selling a vehicle at a price that is ridiculously high

The correct answer is: May involve taking advantage of a consumer who cannot protect his or her own interests

An unconscionable representation refers to a false, misleading, or deceptive statement made by a seller that takes advantage of a consumer who is not able to protect their own interests. Option A is incorrect because emotional distress is not a prerequisite for an unconscionable representation. Option B is incorrect because it implies that the customer's personal moral code determines the legality of the representation, which is not the case. Option D is incorrect because the price of the vehicle is not the determining factor in an unconscionable representation, rather it is the deceptive nature of the statement made by the seller.
