Answer:
Yes, it is a sentence fragment.
Explanation:
Sentence fragments are when sentences are missing information and don't fully express the information they are trying to show.
An example is "I water."
We don't know what that means because it is missing a word.
"I like water."
From the text, when was the car lost and found? Was something lost inside the car and found? So, it is a sentence fragment.
We can add an extra word in the sentence fragment to make it a full sentence. There are some different ways you can do this:
"The car <em>was </em>lost and found."
"The car lost <em>a wheel </em>and <em>was later</em> found.
You just have to add words to make it a complete thought and make sense.
