Used 2017 Subaru Forester for Sale in Akron, OH

Our sales person John Kainrad was absolutely amazing. Rick Vaughn the sales manager was great. There was nothing about this experience that was negative. They have clients for life.

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.

Great place to buy a car! Trustworthy and honest! Highly recommendable and stop in and see Julie, she’s the best! You won’t be disappointed shopping here

Have owned 2 Volvos and the company lost it's spark. Subaru has that spot in my heart now. From the 5 star crash rating (except front passenger seat is 4 star) to great reliability records and good tech stuff I am thrilled.

I was well satisfied with the service provided by Sherman Johnson. He was very knowledgable and thoroughly explained the features of the RDX I bought. He made sure that any question I had was answered to my satisfaction. Sherman definitely cares about his customers and, in my opinion, deserves a gold-star customer service rating!!! Valerie M.

Excellent vision in all directions from the Forester. We like the no non-sense styling of the Touring 2.5i. Easy to get into and out of which matters if getting a few years on you. Very good gas mileage and handling with excellent performance. The AWD is certainly one of many key selling points. Fit and finish is excellent with very good reliability so far. We think it is a excellent SUV and would definitely purchase another Subaru SUV if needed.

Their service department was so great to work with that I decided to buy my next Mopar from Fred Martin. Lonnie was great at helping me find the right truck and was easy to deal with. Very friendly and relaxed atmosphere.

This car is reliable, sturdy, comfortable and has many safety features. It still looks and drives like new after 2 years . Low maintenance and great gas mileage !

So I am not new to buying cars online but typically I fly to the dealership and inspect the car prior to purchasing. This was my first experience of buying a vehicle and having it shipped to me without seeing or test driving the vehicle. Needless to say I was very nervous, especially because the price was so much lower than other vehicles with the same year and mileage. I meticulously looked over the pictures and reviewed the CarFax. I also read many of the reviews listed on the cars.com site and this was the deciding factor to make me buy. I could not be happier with the purchase. This was the easiest most seamless purchase that I have had. All my questions where answered immediately and honestly. They worked extremely hard to find the cheapest shipping price for me (and quick). It was a great experience! The car was better than described, they tend to not over describe the car I am guessing to make sure that you are not disappointed. I do want to remind you that you are not purchasing a new car and you should expect some wear based on the year. With that being said, I feel my car was excellent for the year, miles, and price. It runs smoothly, does not have any lights on, and everything works as stated in the online description. Granted I have not put a lot of miles on it at this point but I could not be more pleased thus far. This was a big risk as you can imagine, but I asked a simple question and feel that I received an honest answer (would you purchase this car for your family site unseen). Without hesitation, I got a simple yes and that he had actually considered the car for his family but decided to wait another year to replace their current car. I encourage you to give the dealership a chance with an online purchase. They seem to display all the characteristics you would hope for in a family owned business; honesty, integrity, individualized customer service, and pride in the work they do. This will be the first website I check when I need another car because of the experience. The only negative I can list is my daughter is claiming the car as hers.....but nothing related to the car or the purchasing experience.

I like the comfort and the visibility of this car. All who have ridden in it feel that it’s comfortable too. Love the eyesight package which gives warnings regarding blind spots and so forth. Find it very easy to parallel park. My only complaint is that the audio controls aren’t intuitive to use, at least for me.

My wife and I recently purchased a 2008 Honda Pilot from Ganley Subaru. Lloyd Henry was our salesperson- and he did a simply OUTSTANDING job. We live about 1.5 hrs from Ganley, so traveling to the dealership was a commitment, and (considering our prior experience with OTHER dealerships) a gamble. Mr Henry really has changed our experience in whole new way. Lloyd answered all of our questions and really went above and beyond to help us out in checking the vehicle over, before we ever saw it in person! We had a detailed description, close up photos, details of any dings or scratches and a detailed CarFax. Lloyd even detailed a few of the repairs that he would recommend once the purchase was complete. Very straightforward and HONEST. No surprises at Ganley, with Lloyd at the wheel. Meanwhile the other staff people were also very courteous and very helpful. We didn;t encounter any pressure or 'tactics. No push to 'upgrade' to a different vehicle. All fees and costs were plainly explained before we sat down with financing, and Lloyd even gave us an estimate on our local tax (something that a lot of salespeople overlook and us customers forget!). After the sale- we had a few courtesy calls, to be sure the transaction and customer satisfaction is well. I never write reviews, but needed to step out here. All around, an amazing experience and re-adjusted our understanding of pre-owned care sales. Thanks so much, Mr Henry!

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.

I was told by family my brake light was out on passenger side. Called Jonathon in Brunswick Subaru who quoted me price. No appointment necessary. Since I get oil changed 6 months, he had oil checked for me. The dealer has great hospitality.

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.

We worked with Sam to purchase a 2016 Tahoe LTV. He worked with us to deliver a great price and great service. I lived outside the area and they had the exact vehicle i was looking for. I asked questions to confirm the options and the quality of the vehicle. Sam was responsive and everything seemed in order so we made the trip to purchase the vehicle. When we got there the vehicle was detailed and ready for us. It was the exact condition that was described and we completed the purchase. The process was smooth and everyone there was courteous and professional. I would recommend Sam and the dealership to others.

I like this vehicle except for the engine shutting off when stopped. it does have an override switch, but if I forget to set it the engine will automatically shut off. that's the only thing I don't like about this car.

I worked with Art on a 1994-5 Jaguar. Very nice conversations only problem was the price it seemed a bit high compared to others. I'm still interested in the auto.

I like all the safety features. That's what sold me on the car. And it is excellent for the height challenged people. Very comfortable and easy infotainment center.

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

This was a great dealership. Gunar Davidov was very helpful and patient with me. He worked with me to find the best car for my budget.

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.

Danielle has been keeping up with the e-mail correspondence like a professional. She has provided me with every request in a timely manner. The details were excellent.

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

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.

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..?

This Is our 2nd Forester it is awesome has exceeded all expectations drives well has amazing safety features perfect size highly recommend to everyone you will not be disappointed

Just leased a brand new 2016 VW Jetta from these guys. Might I first add that the car I leased before that was a 2013 Dodge Dart SXT from their Chrysler/Dodge store and it was the best car I ever had up until now... Had it 3 years and never one problem with it! My previous car had died that morning and I needed a new one ASAP, and they did all they could to get me into the car I wanted the same day and at a fair price. The experience was great, but this time around was even better. I never owned a European car before, and was interested in the VW line. What a great car! I fell in love with a beautiful bright white Jetta SE with Connectivity and they drove to Cincinnati, OH to get me the exact one I wanted. It was fast and drove like a champ, felt safer and more solid than any car I've ever driven, and was laid out on the inside with black leather, sunroof, touch-screen display, rear back-up camera, and Bluetooth/smartphone connectivity. The payment was fair and they did all they could to get me into it quickly. Gretchen (a friend of my husband) started the process and was very friendly and helpful by directing me to the great guys across the street at their VW dealership. The two sales guys, Matt and Bob, that assisted me through the process were very knowledgeable, super-friendly and down to earth, and a total pleasure to deal with. I've never had a better experience or dealt with friendlier sales persons at a dealership before! I was very impressed! Matt found and got me the car I wanted, and Bob finalized the paperwork and spent over an hour with me on Matt's day off just making sure I understood and became familiar with my new foreign car. He also set everything up for me (radio, Bluetooth, and Car-Net account.) Overall, the dealership was great and in a nice location, the car I got is awesome, and I would definitely lease again from any of their dealerships. So glad I went there and I give them 5 stars all the way!

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 was well satisfied with the service provided by Sherman Johnson. He was very knowledgable and thoroughly explained the features of the RDX I bought. He made sure that any question I had was answered to my satisfaction. Sherman definitely cares about his customers and, in my opinion, deserves a gold-star customer service rating!!! Valerie M.

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.

The 2019 Subaru Forester fits my 6'5.5" 15 year old son, and there's spare head room for when he grows taller. I researched multiple vehicles. This one had the room, gas mileage, and most of the creature comforts I was looking for. I also has great pickup, responsive handling, and a smooth ride. It's much smoother than my 2017 Mazda CX-5 (a lead butt).

It is awesome! The ammenities are awesome. This car exceeds all of our expectations. Best decision we have made in a kobg time. Would recommend this model, most definitely.

Everything is great except for the radio and gas mileage could be better. The sport model looks awesome. The seats are so much better then they used to be.

I was in the market for a Subaru Outback and must???ve reached out to a dozen dealers in Ohio. Weeks after buying my the car of my wife???s dreams from Ganley, i still have other dealers sending me form emails about coming in for a test drive. The whole Auto market is broken from my perspective as a professional in business. My time is a precious commodity and if I???m going to spend $30K on something, it???s going to be with a person, and company, that respects it and uses it effectively. That???s exactly what I found in Ganley. With them, I was able to negotiate everything before ever stepping foot on the lot (Thanks Tony!). And, when I did get there Mike made sure that I was in and out and back to my life as quickly as possible, but also that I was valued as a customer. He even sat with me in the car and reviewed all of the options. He was a professional the entire time and never approached me in a fake way. I hope to buy my next car from Mike Hines. Jeff Rosen was also very helpful and Rex Davidson in Finance was absolutely perfect, explaining all options to me in great detail, but never pressuring me. Buying from Ganley was exactly the type of experience I prefer - helpful and productive, yet efficient. It started with Mike Hines and moved throughout everyone I interacted with. If you???re a professional looking for a new Subaru and want a professional, transparent, and efficient car buying process, I simply can???t tevommend Ganley in Bedford strongly enough. Thanks to Mike and team!

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
