Used 2016 Subaru Forester for Sale in Fort Wayne, IN

My husband told me about Carvana from a commercial ad he heard/saw. I laughed about it and said 'yah right, there's gotta be a hitch somewhere'. A few weeks later, he brought up Carvana again....curious, I decided to check it out online. The key words there was 'check it out'. I ended up buying a vehicle a couple hours later. Yeup, it was just like that. No hassle, no hidden costs or agendas. So after reviewing everything on the site, I started looking at minivans....I started falling in love with minivans....I started buying minivans....all through carvana. Once I locked in the one I wanted, I went through the credit process, documentation process, and pick up date (I chose pick up - because at this point, I still felt a little 'leary' about the whole deal'. It was so simple, and so honest, and so real. Over the course of the next 24 hours, all my submitted documents were approved and we just had two days to go to pick up the new mininvan. When we got to the store, it's not like a dealership with a lot, but it had three beautiful, well lit, very clean, showroom like bays that your vehicle is sitting in for your to do a complete inspection of it. It was very classy. Please note, our particular location does not have the car vending machine just yet. After passing our over check, I hopped in the car and drove it 65 miles home. She ran like a charm and I knew I had 7 days to decide if I wanted to keep her not. At day 3, although I loved her, she didn't have all the bells and whistles I truly wanted so that evening, I was back on the Carvana site, shopping for a replacement minivan....it's so easy to do when it gives you results based on your financial settings....I found the new 'her' a few hours later. I ordered her up and made the quick call explaining I was swapping and chose to have the vehicle delivered instead of going there to save time. The whole swap process took 2 days...they pulled up right to my house with my next new minivan. In my eyes, she was perfect, but I found a flaw before she was even off the truck. There was a huge bolt in the back tire. I was so disappointed. But Carvana took care of that so amazingly over the top.....they still brought her off the truck so I can check out the interior, test drive it, etc. We found a few more things that we felt should be fixed...minor things. Carvana took note of the items, and took the vehicle back on the truck but promised me (because I really wanted her that day) they would bring her back with a new tire....they kept their promise, three hours later she was back with a brand new tire, not one, but TWO brand new back tires. And they put an extra Carvana cup in the car for me. They swapped the minivans and off the old one went and there I sat with the new one. Smile ear to ear. I worked with Carvana on 6 items that we believed needed repair before committing to keep the vehicle. Carvana went above and beyond. I got an estimate for the repairs at a local shop, Carvana approved it, and within a few weeks, all repairs were completed through Carvana and I have the perfect vehicle, no hassle, no hidden agendas. And every person I dealt with on the phone or in person were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, AND JUST THE BEST!! My Carvana experience was the absolute best. I will never go back to buying a car the old 'car dealership' way. And ironically, we had bought our other vehicle from a dealership just 3 months before being introduced to Carvana. I will give one warning about buying a vehicle through Carvana this way....it can be addicting..lol :-) Yes, I still shop Carvana cars every now and then....I don't even need a car, I just love seeing what Carvana has because it was sooo simple :-) Thank you Carvana for a trememdously wonderful experience.

Great dependable cars...I have one with 265K on it and as soon as I have the radiator replaced I will give to the grandkids. Comment

Our experience with Grote was and continues to be a very satisfying and positive experience. Our salesperson was very knowledgeable and told us up front what are options were, and work diligently to get us in a vehicle that was within our price range, and comfortable monthly payments. It has been a year now since we purchased our truck and we have had no problems. We utilize the service department regularly for oil changes, and the service staff is wonderful, Patrick and Bob are so polite and my wait is never long, their prices for service is very reasonable, the best I've found in town. Bob will keep you laughing, he is so funny. They even have coloring books and crayons for the kids which I found very useful when having to bring my grandchild with me at times of service. Grote is true to it's motto " They are truly for the people" and I stand by that, we have even referred family member, who have purchased vehicles and they are also very please with their service. Andre and I are customers for life, and when we're ready to upgrade to our next truck, Grote will definitely get our business. If you're in the market to purchase a new vehicle, please give Grote a try, I promise you, you will not be disappointed.

This car its all we were expecting. A lot of space in the back . Its perfect for families. I just loved everything off it.

I???ve had the same car since I was 16 (now 24) so this next purchase was a huge deal to me. I inquired about the car and got a response within the next 30 mins, then I set up a test drive. I met with Eric and he was great. He wasn???t pushy at all and that was my biggest fear going into a dealership. I test drove the car and fell in love with it. They helped me get the paperwork together that night, and the next day once I finalized it all I drove off with my new purchase. Eric made sure it was perfect and clean for me when I arrived to pick it up. I 100% recommend them, everyone there was super friendly and helpful. I felt like I was talking to a friend rather than a salesmen. If you want a dealership that gets you a good price, is honest with you on their opinion of vechiles, and is not pushy at all; O???Daniel is where you need to go.

The Subaru manufacturer produces top quality cars at common man prices. My used 2016 Forester 2.5i is a base trim model, however, it has what I really need in a car without the up charge. The engine is well sized for the the vehicle; it is paired with a CVT transmission. The combined effect is that with little pressure on the gas peddle, the car springs into action. (No more holding up the line when the light turns green.) Last weekend I took the car on a camping trip. Some of the roads of the campground were muddy and uneven with 2 inch stones. The high suspension and symmetric 4 wheel drive of the Forester handled the roads effortlessly. On the highway to and from the campground, the Forester was a smooth well handling ride, even over the winter torn roads. There is plenty of torque at highway speeds for highway acceleration. The cabin interior layout places the major controls at easy reach. The operation of the infotainment system is reasonably user friendly, and there are quick controls on the steering column. In summary, my Subaru Forester is is a well equipment, quality vehicle, especially considering it is the entry model. Based on Consumer Reports I expect a long and trouble free (reliable) service life. Good quality, reliable, reasonable price = valve, value, value.

De'Sirae Cann was very helpful, very professional and very nice. She answered all of my questions and whatever she did not know she made it a point to find out so that I got some kind of an answer. If anyone I know ever needs a car I will tell them to go to Grote automotive and ask for De'Sirae Cann. Also the Car lot was very orderly and it was easy to get around to be able to look at all of the cars. Inside the business was clean and orderly. This business is honestly selling cars to people to help them and not to put them down or criticize because of bad credit. I would recommend Grodi automotive to anyone that needs to buy a car.

Just what I look for in a car nice size all wheel drive and on and on. After 3 subies I don't need to say anymore

Was treated great from start to finish by my salesman, Aturo. Brian was also a great help. Very professional Got a great car at a great price. Big selection

Has everything I need, especially getting in and out as I am getting older. Also love the backup camera. Also, many controls are on the steering wheel as well as the dashboard.

I have tried other places in Fort Wayne over the years and non of them come close to my experience at Fort Wayne Subaru. I've been taking my car there now for over 3 years and I consistently have a great experience and the value is also very good. Never worry that I'm being over charged or asked to buy anything I don't need.

My 1st Forester is a 2009 turbocharged model which is still going strong with 110,000 miles. The newer Foresters offer safety and convenience features mine doesn't have so I decided to upgrade. The 2019 Forester no longer offers the turbocharged version so I opted for a certified pre-owned 2018 XT Touring which has a turbocharger. I love the vehicle but because the turbo is no longer available, the used turbo versions have become quite pricey. I am keeping the old one for hauling dogs, lawn equipment and towing my utility trailer. The new one will be just for people for now. The vehicle is just the right size. I am 6'4" and would appreciate a little more leg room and thigh support but the Forester is as comfortable as any other small SUV I checked. There is plenty of headroom. The turbo does require premium fuel and has a lower mileage rating. With the turbo and sports tuned suspension, it is a fun vehicle to drive and worth the money to me. In over 10 years, the older one left me stranded only once when a drive belt broke after 100,000 miles. Based on reviews, I expect the same reliability from the newer one.

Good, fresh popcorn. I worked with Brent. He was really nice. He is searching for the exact car that I want. Hoping to buy from them in the future.

Great car, but battery died after 6 months and Bloomington Subaru didn't make it easy to get it replaced. This is a known issue with Foresters.

Couldn’t be happier with Deb and her team. Took the time to explain to me in detail what was going on and how best to address it.

The best example of why I love this car: passing all the stuck in the snow giant four wheel drive trucks in the parking lot at work to easily park and leave as well. Bravo Subaru

I always get great service from the team at Subaru.

This car is perfect for me. It combines comfort, reliability, styling and exceptional performance on all types of roads. I have the Touring turbo model which is very quick off the line and hustles down the road easily when prodded. Combine all of that with the practicality of an SUV and you can understand why I am in love with it. I prefer to drive it over my other car (which I also love), a 3 series BMW, because it is as quick but much more versatile.

I???ve had the same car since I was 16 (now 24) so this next purchase was a huge deal to me. I inquired about the car and got a response within the next 30 mins, then I set up a test drive.

I loved the look of the Forester. I also liked the way it drove. I had to not get the Forester because when you fold down the back seats there is about a six inch hump . This as going to cause problems hauling items. There was also a good bit of space between the front seat and the folded down seats even if you moved the front seats all the way back.

Writing this review is the very least I could do to not only thanks the men and women that work here but also share my experience so that others might know where to turn. The staff, in both the front and the service area are the most amazing I have ever encountered. You will not have a better experience anywhere else (and believe me this isn't paid endorsement and I'm not one to be swept away by exaggeration, I stand by these words). From the first initial contact to driving away from the dealership, you matter there. I can't thank them enough for the kindness, the compassion, the consideration, the genuine hospitality for everyone from their newest hire to the GM themselves. This dealership also believes in the community it services (the participate in soo many local charity events, and if you doubt me google it or listen to the radio and you'll happen to hear something going on that they are involved with). This is a review and a thank you. You can think of it a just a car but these vehicles are entrusted everyday to ensure our loved ones safety and the only team I trust to keep my car able to safe guard my family is this team.

Dream car.love it .plenty of space, comfortable, powerful vehicle as well. I see my self recommending the same vehicle to other ppeople as well.why not..?

Only owned it two days but so far really like it a lot! Look forward to many years of use from the Subaru Forester! Great

I came in wanting information on the new 2018 Traverse. I met Tyler Montgomery and he was very knowledgeable on the Traverse and walked me through what the Traverse had to offer! I had a very fun experience and had a great time working with Tyler at Kelley Automotive

Reliable, attractive, durable, safe, comfortable, all weather, slick design. All my cars have been from the Subaru family and all of my family has owned Subaru’s

Brent Parrish is an excellent sales person! I am always pleased with the service I have performed – – – Jason, the service manager, is quite knowledgeable and an excellent asset to this dealership. During my last visit I had the opportunity to meet Gene Davis, the General Manager. It was a pleasure meeting him and I can tell he is dedicated to Subaru and to taking excellent care of the customers. I would highly recommend Fort Wayne Subaru to anyone.

Replaced a 2002 BMW I bought new and loved until the last day I drove it in 2018. Now I look forward to every chance I get to drive my Forester. My dogs do too.

Was treated great from start to finish by my salesman, Aturo. Brian was also a great help. Very professional Got a great car at a great price. Big selection

This is a great vehicle and we're so glad that we purchased one. We've had a couple of minor things go wrong that should not have such as the drivers side visor starting to squeak loudly. All said we are very happy with this car. On the down side there is now standard technology out there that is not available. Automatic wipers are missing and items like remote start and subaru's safety and security package are extra when Honda includes them both free. But my biggest issue is not the car it's that there is no convenient dealersl or service anywhere near me. The nearest service is 45 minutes away. The next car will have to be available locally.

Excellent service team! They explain what is recommended before doing any work. I trust them 100% with my Subaru Legacy.

Passenger airbag problem. Took over three months to get part. I have test driven 2019 and like this model much better. Just right size now hat I’m no driving a van. Touring model is great. Love the brown leather.

Jason Williams from Fort Wayne Subaru took the time to go over all options finding the best new car that would work with our family. He stayed past his shift to teach us about how everything worked in our new car, helped setup clock and other miscellaneous settings. Everyone was very helpful making our experience a great one!

This cat is great for a small family. It gets great mileage, has ample cargo room and is comfortable even on long trips. I've been most impressed with the handling and performance this winter on snow and ice. It crawls through snow and and ice without any trouble.
