2009 Subaru Forester

Dependable vehicle. Excellent maneuverability on the road and when parking. Comfortable always on short or long trips. This is my second one and I will have a third when the time comes. I love my Subaru!

2009 Subaru Forester

Great vehicle. I couldn't be more pleased. Maintenance is the key in support of a vehicle that is dependable and consistent in performance. This is my second Subaru. I would never consider another vehicle make or model!

Recommended by Consumer Reports

We've owned three Subaru Foresters and the fourth will probably be a 2017 or 2018 Forester. They are well built, made to last, and the price is reasonable. I have experienced many years of driving in Oswego County snow storms, and the Forester has gotten me through.

Excellent all purpose vehicle!

Love this vehicle! Superb vehicle for city, highway, and cross country. Very low maintenance and extremely comfortable. I will plan to purchase another Forester in two years.

Great vehicle - Subaru Forester

I love my Subaru Forester. I didn't give my review 5 stars because I wish that the Forester had fog lights. The car sits high up and on a dark night those fog lights would help me see better at night.

2009 Subaru Forester

This Forester is the 2nd of 3 manual transmission vehicles we've had the pleasure of owning. Have had no significant problems with any of them, but there have been some minor glitches. 2000 Forester - some electrical problem caused the battery liquid to overflow and caused some metal corrosion problems on the battery side of the engine compartment. Repaired under warranty by the dealer(Bob Baker Subaru, El Cajon, CA. 2009 Forester - drivers side manual seat height doesn't work properly. The seat drifts downward when the seat is unoccupied and must be raised to proper height each time the vehicle is entered. Bob Baker Subaru could never find the cause even though the vehicle was taken to them many times. 2016 Forester - no problems so far.

Love my Subaru

We own a 2009 Subaru Forester. We've had it for about 4 years and it has been a great, reliable vehicle for our family. Other than routine maintenence, we haven't had a single issue. Though, we will drive this vehicle for several more years, we'll certainly but another Subaru when it's time!

Subaru 2009 Forester

This car has served me well for several years and I hope that it will do so for several more. It can function like a car--comfortable to drive and to ride in--or like a truck--with the seats down a lot of stuff can go in the back.

2009 Subaru Forester Review

In general, the car is very good but the manual transmission is a piece of crap. Compared to those of Volkswagen and Ford, it's something that Subaru should hang their heads in shame over.
