2019 Subaru Forester consumer reviews

The Subaru forester sport is the best one yet. It has a lot of features that are amazing. The ride is the best out of all of the Subarus we have owned so far. It is larger inside that the older models.

Love it bumper to bumper, it has everything in it that i had on my wish list. I dont think i could own any other make again

This Suv met all my needs , according to Car and driver and consumer report is the safest suv in the market! Subaru has the best resale value too

This car has exceeded our expectations! We have owned several Hondas, Nissans, and GM veglhicles in the past, but none compare to the quality and luxury feel of the Subaru. The pearlized black exterior gives it a very classy look. The black leather accent on the interior seats and trim is a great compromise between all cloth or all leather. The all weather option package gives us just the right amount of extras that we want with nothing over the top. The safety features, technology, and handling really seal the deal. I can't wait to take this on our first long driving trip this summer! This purchase was the 8th Subaru in my immediate family!

We bought a 2019 Subaru Forester Touring in November of 2018. The exterior color is Dark Gray Metallic. The factory paint job has 7 flaws in it. The flaws have a lighter paint color. It has 2 flaws on the hood and 5 on the roof. We picked up the vehicle when it was dark outside - that was our mistake. We are disappointed that our Quality Standards are higher than Subaru and a Subaru Dealer. We are now wondering where else is the Quality below average on this new Forester Touring. We're also amazed this left the Subaru Factory in this condition. We wish the Subaru Dealer when cleaning and inspecting the Forester would have told us about the paint flaws. We would've declined purchasing this Forester and bought a different brand. The Forester is noisy in the cabin above 55 mph. The CVT does drone/loud when accelerating. The Auto On/Off is rough and you must disengage it every time you start the vehicle. This is annoying. The vision is good with no blind spots. We will sell or trade as soon as we don't take such a big hit on depreciation. We also understand the poor factory paint job will hurt our resale or trade value. This has been very disappointing and we will never purchase/buy another Subaru.

We put in a deposit on the Sport trim because the exact one we wanted wasn't on the lot, but this vehicle ticks all the boxes. I saw many complaints that is slow, but we didn't find that to be the case at all. Maybe it was because we are coming from an '03 Forester, but it had serious pick up by comparison and had no problems merging or overtaking on the highway. Also the one review mentioning no incline on the cubby below the head unit is incorrect. On the sport model, there definitely is an incline front to back, as well as a grippy surface and front lip. Nothing should fly out of there unless you pack it too full. Will write a full review after driving it for a week or two.

The car has the benefits of a small SUV while looking like a smart, sporty, new ride. Being a big guy, the Forester has lots of head and shoulder room for the driver.

Took delivery of 2019 Forester Touring in November. Already put on about 5,000 miles - - including a 1,200 mile annual, snowbird, migration NJ to FL. Great mileage and pickup. Interior is very rich and creature comforts abound. Huge interior, for its size.

The Subaru Forrester is a great vehicle. It handles well looks Great and is looks great!Great gas mileage! Great vehicle for the money great for a family as well

I am 6'5" and I fit very comfortably in the 2019 Forester. I find it to be well equipped with all the necessary creature comforts. I is a good value for the price, but the 0-60 could be better. That must be the sacrafice for the good gas mileage. I would highly recommend that you check out the Forester.
