There are no vague (indefinite) pronouns in the sentence. There is only one pronoun in the sentence, it, which is a personal pronoun, representing the noun antecedent car.

What is a vague pronoun?

A vague pronoun is a pronoun for which it's not clear which noun is its antecedent. In other words, you can't tell which word the pronoun is replacing.Example 1:When the car hit a tree, it made a terrible noise. Did the car make the noise or did the tree make the noise? The sentence is worded in a way that it's not clear.A better form of this sentences is:The car made a terrible noise when it hit the tree. Here you can tell that the pronoun 'it' is referring to the antecedent 'car'.Example 2:*The literal reference in the above example is neither the car nor the tree: it is the action of the car hitting the tree. There is no real vague pronoun. However, there is in:Bill went with John to his father's store. (vague)To rewrite it:Bill went to his father's store with John.Bill and John went to the store owned by Bill's father.

What is the correct answer when the car hit the tree it made a terrible noise or the car made a terrible noise as it crashed into a tree?

The correct answer is: When the car hit a tree, it made a terrible noise. Since the object is to find the sentence with vague pronouns, it could refer to either the tree or car. It does not specify which antecedent it refers to. * This is a poor example of a vague (unclear) pronoun because there is no noun antecedent. What is making the noise is the collision, not the tree or the car. What is making the noise is "the car hitting the tree" which is not in the sentence.


Is this sentence correct When the car hit the tree it made a terrible noise?

It would be better to say, 'When the car hit the tree the impact made a terrible noise,' so that the reader isn't left in any doubt whether it was the car or the tree that made the terrible noise.(It is actually neither one, but the impact that makes the noise.)
