Answer:

D. Riley buys new windshield wipers for her car.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition unsought goods are those which are not purchased out of want or desire, but the purchases of which arise due to any of the following circumstances:

  • danger - for example a fire extinguishers sought in the incident of a fire
  • fear - for example the fear of crashing into another car (in this case)
  • unexpected events - for example funeral services sought at the time of death
