Statement 3: The dealership was wrong to advertise the car on special sale when in actually it was not available.

Explanation:

A moral statement determines wheter an action perfomed in the midst of a certain situation is right or wrong, and it also suggets an alternative scenario where the opposite is done with the aim of supporting a moral principle.

Statement 3 determines that the salesman's actions were wrong-doing given his situation, and it also implies what would have been right provided alternative circumstances (if the advertised car had been actually been in stock).
