If a person purchases a stolen vehicle unknowingly, ______.

A stolen vehicle remains the property of its legal owner, even if someone buys it without knowing it was stolen. The buyer generally must give it up, and it will be returned to the legal owner; an innocent purchase does not transfer ownership. Therefore, the correct choice is “he or she will lose that vehicle, as it will be returned to the legal owner.”
