Syllabus

Even if employees of auto dealership misrepresented that GAP agreement would provide coverage for total loss of truck—which they knew would be used for commercial purposes—this representation directly contradicted the express terms of commercial vehicle exclusion in the GAP agreement. Appellant cannot establish justifiable reliance, therefore, his claims for fraudulent inducement and negligent misrepresentation necessarily fail. Dismissal under Civ.R. 12(C) was properly granted.
