Frequently Asked Questions

What Are The Key Differences Between Used Forester Model Years?

The Subaru Forester has evolved significantly, with the 2014 redesign introducing improved interior space, updated styling, and the introduction of EyeSight Driver Assist Technology as an available feature. Models from 2009-2013 represent the previous generation with proven reliability and excellent value. The 2014-2018 generation offers enhanced safety technology, improved fuel economy reaching up to 32 mpg highway, and more refined driving dynamics. 

The 2019 redesign brought a completely new platform with significantly more interior space, standard EyeSight on all trims, available larger touchscreen displays (up to 11.6 inches on recent models), and improved ground clearance. The 2022 model introduced Wilderness trim with enhanced off-road capability. Regardless of generation, all used Forester models maintain standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive, spacious cargo areas, and the rugged versatility that makes them ideal for Alabama families and outdoor enthusiasts.

How Does A Used Forester Compare To The Honda CR-V Or Toyota RAV4?

The used Subaru Forester's primary advantage over the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 is standard Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive across every model year and trim level, while both competitors offered primarily front-wheel drive with AWD only available as a premium option until recent years. This provides the Forester with superior traction in rain, better handling on gravel roads, and year-round confidence. The Forester also offers more ground clearance (8.7 inches) compared to the CR-V (7.8 inches) and RAV4 (8.4 inches), making it more capable on rough terrain. 

While the CR-V and RAV4 may achieve slightly better fuel economy with their base engines, the Forester remains competitive at up to 33 mpg highway depending on model year. Interior cargo space is generous across all three SUVs, with the Forester offering up to 74.4 cubic feet with seats folded. For Alabama drivers who prioritize all-weather capability and higher ground clearance without compromising interior space, the used Forester delivers the best balance of versatility, safety, and year-round performance.

What Should I Look For When Buying A Used Forester?

When purchasing a used Subaru Forester, prioritize vehicles with complete service records showing regular oil changes and scheduled maintenance, as this ensures optimal longevity of the reliable BOXER engine. Inspect common wear items including brake pads, tires with adequate tread depth, and suspension components for any signs of excessive wear. Check the CVT transmission operation during test drives, ensuring smooth acceleration without hesitation, unusual noises, or shuddering. Review the vehicle history report carefully for accident history, previous ownership, and title status. 

Test all technology features including the infotainment system, rearview camera, and available EyeSight Driver Assist Technology to ensure proper operation. Pay attention to the condition of the all-wheel-drive system during your test drive on varied road surfaces. Our team at Hendrick Subaru Hoover provides comprehensive vehicle histories and detailed inspection reports for all used Forester models, giving you complete confidence in your purchase.

Are Certified Pre-Owned Forester Models Available?

Yes, Hendrick Subaru Hoover offers certified pre-owned Subaru Forester models that meet Subaru's strict certification requirements when available. Certified Pre-Owned Forester vehicles must pass a rigorous 152-point inspection conducted by factory-trained technicians, maintain a clean vehicle history, and meet specific age and mileage criteria.

Additional CPO advantages include CARFAX Vehicle History Report, complimentary maintenance plan, and special financing rates available through Subaru financing partners. We encourage interested shoppers to check ourc ertified pre-owned inventory frequently or contact our sales team about current CPO Forester availability.

What Makes The Forester A Good Choice For Alabama Families?

The Subaru Forester excels as a family vehicle thanks to its spacious interior with generous rear legroom, easy-access rear doors that make child seat installation simpler, and up to 74.4 cubic feet of cargo space for strollers, sports equipment, and weekend gear. Standard all-wheel drive provides confident traction during Alabama's unpredictable weather, while high ground clearance handles everything from Birmingham potholes to rural gravel roads with ease. Safety is paramount with available EyeSight Driver Assist Technology (standard on 2019+ models) offering features like adaptive cruise control, pre-collision braking, and lane-keep assist that help protect your loved ones. 

The Forester's proven reliability, excellent safety ratings including a 5-star overall rating from NHTSA on recent models, and reputation for longevity (96% of Foresters sold in the last 10 years are still on the road) make it a smart long-term investment. Additionally, the elevated seating position provides excellent visibility, and the intuitive controls make daily operation stress-free for busy parents.
