C) Wolfe can hold either Harris or the employer or both liable.

Explanation:

Since Harris was acting within the scope of his employment, then he and his employer are liable for the injuries that Wolfe suffered. Wolfe can decide to recover from either of them (generally the employer would be chosen) or from both parties, there is no legal limitation.

It doesn't matter who owns the vehicle, what matters is what was Harris doing at the time of the accident; he was performing tasks on behalf of his employer.

If Wolfe died, Harris could face criminal charges, but his employer still would be liable in a civil case.
