Used 2017 Subaru Forester for Sale in Hackettstown, NJ

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.

It has all the imenities I was looking for. Plus many more. It has a lot of leg room. Storage by the spare tire. I love the way the suv looks.

Wanting something all wheel drive naturally leads you to Subaru. If you're looking for something with some off road capabilities but also a steady commuter with some room to spare, the Forester is the sweet spot. The 2019 generation Foresters are great, but they lack the punch of the older turbo options. With the same 250+ HP, 258 lb-ft torque engine in the WRX, the 2.0 L turbo shaves off over 2 seconds from the 0-60 time of the standard 2.5i engine. And it's noticeable. It gets knocked for being paired to CVT but I find it to be smooth and has great throttle response in Sport mode. Off road and in snow it does really well and lives up to the hype. A lot of reviews don't consider the Forester to be that stylish on the exterior, but I think that's ultimately a matter of preference. I find the exterior to be simple but muscular with the XT having a meaner front end. Inside there are some good upgrades which finally make the Forester feel a bit more luxury including leather seats and accents, a quieter interior and a decent sound system. The Harmon/Kardon sound system still leaves a lot to be desired, however. It's very bass heavy without a lot of refinement. Overall the Forester XT with Touring trim offers some nice amenities with still staying true to the rugged nature Subaru is known for. Pros: fun to drive (3 driving modes, paddle shifters), great visibility, great off road capabilities, roomy back seat and trunk, giant sunroof Cons: lower gas mileage, premium fuel recommended, lack of interior refinement, weak infotainment system

I had a battery with one bad cell (or so AAA told me after they started my car). So I called and then drove straight to Paul Miller Subaru which, as it happened, was having a sale on batteries. I checked into Express service and asked them to put in a new battery and check my wiper blades. The whole thing took about 20 minutes and I was back driving to work with a new batter for $100 plus installation and a new free set of wiper bladed that happened to be under warranty after 8 months. Pretty cool.

This SUV is a great vehicle for the money, and is extremely comfortable on long road trips. It has a smooth ride with ample power for around town use. I would have preferred an analog fuel gauge instead of the digital one.

I have to say that this dealerships service center has treated me great and made me love my subaru again. I'll start my story by saying that I have had ongoing issues with my 13' crosstrek since 10000 miles. my subaru was purchased in Virginia so that is not being blamed on ertle at all. when I did service my car in VA the service was horrible. 1 year later I moved to NY. This was the dealership that I notified the problem of an extended crank and clunk upon starting, this was also when the problem began. I took my car in to feders subaru in Middletown NY....for a simple oil change.....there was a horrible odor after driving my car.....turns out they had poured oil all over my engine and it was burning. has to take it back and get it cleaned...went back again for low coolant....they claimed it wasn't low....lol. they had filled it and told me I was wrong. I never went back.. changed my dealership to colonialSubaru in Kingston ny....their service department had me drive over an hour each way countless times to try and fix the crank and clunk...over 5 times...and it was never ever fixed even after they brought in a " special" service guy......not to mention the terrible attitudes of their service department . I honestly had given up on this issue ever being fixed...and was planning to sell my car and never get another subaru again. i have owned 2 subarus prior to this one...and was also raised in a family driving subarus....and loved them. yet this experience had me so angry and I couldn't believe 2 dealerships couldn't fix the problem which would at times leave me stranded with my car not starting. I ended up moving to PA and found ertle subaru and thank God I did. they fixed the extended crank issue in 1 visit. . yes a single visit. I take my car to them for everything I need and they are so professional and knowledgeable. Bill and James at the desk listen to everything you are saying and convey that to the service men in back. I can say this dealerships service center is amazing and has changed my opinion of newer subarus. They have my car in tip top shape...and I love it again....no longer want to sell it. also, when I am ready for a newer model....i will be purchasing from Ertle.

Full disclosure: My girlfriend owns it, but I drive it a lot. I find the 2017 Forester to be a pretty decent small SUV. I find it comfortable and fairly well-designed. I'm not a huge fan of CVTs but find it has enough pep when I need it. The dash is fairly well-organized and all critical controls are knobs and buttons rather than buried in the touch screen like some cars. A few things could be slightly better organized but these are minor details. The Subaru infotainment system is pretty lacking and the touch screen is buggy sometimes. They're behind the curve on this. But overall it's a decent car even if I'd like it more with a 6 speed manual.

This car met all of our needs. It has plenty of leg room, wide opening doors, back up camera and heated seats. It also has the least number of blind spots I've ever had in a vehicle. I also feel safer in my Forester then I have in any other car I've owned. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a new car/small SUV.

Tristan is an excellent salesperson, and I would recommend his service to anyone who is looking to purchase a Nissan vehicle. My grandmother just purchased a brand new Nissan Rogue 2016, and she is very satisfied with her purchase. She had an idea what she wanted and Tristan helped her along the way. I purchased my Altima back in 2014, and it was a Nissan Altima 2015. We are both proud owners.

Can’t beat the great safety features for long commutes or long trips! This is a great family car or a first car for teenage drivers.

We went in to get an appraisal on a car. Right away I could tell this was not the usual "slick" dealership. No one rushed to us, we got some smiles and "can I help you's?" right away. When we explained what we needed Ralph put on a jacket, called someone else and went out in the rain to perform the appraisal right away. Not on just one car, but two! Very forthright and honest, no nonsense guys. And the place is fascinating, old pictures, books, things to look out. I am not from here, but I would recommend this dealership to anyone and if i needed a car, this would be the place where I would go. Checking locally, their reputation is outstanding and they came highly recommended.I believe it!

This car has meet all my needs. I feel good driving this car. I feel safe!It has all the great features in it. It is a very comfortable car to drive.

Ed from East Stroudsburg. We've bought 2 cars from them in the last 18 months. The buying experience was really great. NO PRESSURE!!!!! Danny was a very organized salesman. Ralph Jr a trip. One thing that I always want to know is how the service department is, Bill and the guys are exceptional. They were card at taking care of your car , great experience.

First thing I notices when driving this vehicle was how easy it is to see out of! The windshield and the way you're seated gives the ultimate view of the road which I love. The ride is exceptionally smooth and the car looks stellar! Highly recommend!

This car has better quality than the 2012 outback we had. The room is better and the ride is smooth. The car has many more up to date safety features than he out we had.

Great people! I bought a BMW 328I from FRANK AT STAR AUTO MALL 191 . He was so patient with me. He sat with me while I had to wait for the finance guy. He Made sure he connected with me every time I was there for something on my car. I knew I could contact him for any questions on the car. frank went Above and beyond. frank was a very helpful person! Plus going through other reviews on here, you can tell they really care what kind of experience people have with them. If anyone is looking for a vehicle please I recommend that you go see FRANK AT STAR AUTO MALL 191 on Nazareth pike.

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.

It was a great experience in purchasing 2014 Honda Odyssey EX L from Taj Auto Mall dealership. Chelsea, Sheila and Ray helped me find out the car as per my requirement and were very helpful. Ali was very kind in getting me the best rate from a lender and getting me a car on the same day. I will definitely recommend Taj to my friends. Regards, Subodh

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 bought my second car 2019 Legacy from this dealership. First, I made an appointment to see a Sales Consultant on-line. On the same day, I received a friendly call from Robert Price who set up an appointment for me. On my appointment day, I met with Steve Durkin, Sales Consultant, who was friendly, helpful, patient and very professional. We negotiated but I never felt being pushed to agree on the price. Eventually we agreed on a price I am comfortable with. I also met Anthony Smolt, who was equally nice and friendly. The color of my choice was not available at that time but Steve promised that it will only take a few days before the next delivery. I have to travel for family reason and although the car has arrived in the dealership, I was still out of town. As soon as I returned to New Jersey after a month, I called the dealership and Steve was happy to inform me that my new car was waiting for me and the negotiated price was still in order. I went to the Dealership, sat with Steve and signed necessary documents in a very friendly atmosphere. I met with David Fried of Finance who has 110% patience with me. He suggested and recommended but still it was my own decision which optional product/service I will purchase. Then I met with Nick Gigantes who escorted me to my new 2019 Legacy. Another man with the virtue of patience, Nick showed me the interior features of my car. After thoroughly explaining to me everything, he has to do it all over again because I forgot what he just explained. I drove ???my pride and joy??? home. The next day, Steve Durkin called me to follow up on how I am doing with my new Subaru and he reassured me that if I have questions or problems or any difficulty, all I have to do is call the dealership and I will get immediate assistance. My overall experience with Wayne Subaru Dealership (the Sales and the Service Department) is truly exceptional because the staff like Robert, Steve, Anthony, David and Nick are exceptionally professional. I am so proud to quote that ???my Legacy is not just a sedan. It???s a SUBARU.??? Thank you. Anne Marie

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 !

I have wanted a WRX hatchback for as long as I can remember. I really liked the charcoal grey color and wanted a low mileage 2014 (the last year the hatch was offered), and I was willing to travel to obtain it. I was pretty excited as it was my first car purchase and I hope to have the car for a long, long time. I had email notifications set up on Autotraders and CarGurus, which I highly recommend doing (especially if you are being as insanely picky as myself). I was alerted when a 2011 Grey WRX popped up at the Wayne Dealership - I was happy about the certified pre-owned option and after doing some research on the dealership I was ready to make a trip out to New Jersey from Manhattan. I sent them an email inquiry and heard back from Steve within the hour. After a few pretty quick emails back and forth I set up an appointment - Steve's rapid responses were a welcome change from other dealerships I had worked with. Not only that but Steve agreed to pick me up at the bus station down the street - incredible customer service before I had even met him. When I got in his car, he let me know they had just got a 2014 in with half the miles and he was all set to do two test drives even though it would keep him after normal dealership hours. You can probably see a theme developing - Steve is an incredibly gracious, accommodating and down-to-earth dude. I liked both cars immensely and Steve spent a solid hour discussing the pros and cons with me and putting up with my OCD! I can only recall him using one car salesman cliche, something along the lines of "what will it take to get a deal done today?" but I will forgive him because in the end we worked out a VERY NICE deal (even though the car was so new it hadn't even been listed on their website yet and they could have held out for some more offers). I honestly think Steve appreciated my enthusiasm for the vehicle and for Subaru culture and thought that the car and I kind of deserved each other. Steve then drove me 30 minutes out of his way to drop me off at the only bus stop with late night service. I set the pick up date for the one week, but ended up needing an extra week to get financing sorted - they had no problem in extending the deal. When I came back out Steve once again picked me up at the bus stop. We ended up chatting for an hour as the business manager was processing a lot of sales (this places sells a lot of Subarus for a reason...) - during this conversation Steve really showed his passion for and knowledge of cars, we talked about his weekend car project and walked through all the upgrades we thought would be appropriate for my WRX! It was a very fun and informative chat and I enjoyed learning about Steve's backstory. I proceeded to meet the business manager, who was also very friendly, I was prepared for his extended warranty sales pitch but I was pretty confident thatI would not be opting for it as the car was already certified pre-owned. Anyway, I ended up upgrading to one-level higher certified pre-owned coverage (which includes electrical, brakes, suspension etc - in addition to the basic drivetrain stuff already included) since the car has a solid 70,000 more miles covered on its warranty. He also essentially threw in tire and wheel coverage for 5 years (a must-have with a daily driver in Manhattan - a few flat tires will pay for the whole warranty) so I felt very good about spending a few extra bucks. Anyway, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish; the car runs great and is a lot of fun (perhaps a little too much fun sometimes...). I highly recommend Steve and the whole team at Wayne Subaru - I will definitely be going back if the need for another wonderful car ever arises. I'll be a Subiu owner for life! Thanks guys!

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 purchased a 2015 Subaru Outback last week at Wayne Subaru (Hamburg Turnpike in Wayne, NJ 07470). Our salesman was Vinnie Calabrese (?). Vinnie was terrific. He seemed to know the inventory very well and let my wife test drive all the cars she wanted. At no time did he pressure us. There was a little confusion on the first car m picked out-the car fax showed a collision, but the car had a Certified flag on it. And actually, our second choice was the car I really wanted. Vinnie was great be sure to ask for him. And at the closing, David in the Finance Office was spot on. I work for a credit union and expected him to pressure us for GAP and extended warranties, but he didn't. In fact, he showed us the warranty information and told us there is no obligation to buy. He also gave us a great rate as Subaru is advertising Special Love offer on new and used vehicles. Overall, the dealership, Wayne Subaru, was really outstanding. And of course the cars are great!

Just bought a new to me Forester and I couldn't be happier. Subaru hasn't let me down yet...this is my 3rd one and I can't imagine driving anything else. It's safe, reliable and sporty!

Friends and relatives had recommended Wayne Subaru... even those who do not live close to Wayne. We met Steve Durkin at another location (an area Pizzeria) and we were struck with his warmth and openness. When we later visited Wayne Subaru, all the sales staff were friendly and helpful as we waited for Steve to return from an appointment with another customer. (In other dealerships, we were accustomed to getting a "cold shoulder" from sales staff who didn't read us as affluent and potential qualified buyers". All the staff at Wayne Subaru were genuinely hospitable. Steve Durkin was worth waiting for. He listened to our wants, needs and questions; he gave us great information, and helped us to see and review differences among our options. We had phone conversations with him later and a second visit before making our choice. In the meantime, we compared prices online and we were convinced that Steve was giving us a terrific vehicle for our specifications. We chose a new 2017 Outback with the accessories that we valued most. The purchase was completed within the week, and we have received follow-up call and email from Steve to ensure we are comfortable with the special features and to answer any questions we may have. We are delighted with our experience with Steve Durkin and the support team and sales team at Wayne Subaru.

Excellent car for safety and performance. A repeat buyer. Subaru has added latest safety features like Blind Spot Monitor, RAB, Land Departure warning and Excelent Sound System.

My intentions upon arriving at Wayne Subaru were to browse their new 2017 Legacy models and possibly take advantage of Subaru's 0% financing offer. Joan greeted me promptly & friendly and showed me their inventory. There were no new 2017 Legacy's left only slightly used models were available. Test drove a 2018 Legacy Premium model, looked at the Base model and found a beautiful 2018 Premium model with the newest ext & int colors. Sat down to talk numbers. The price was adjusted below sticker immediately, no haggle. The price was where I wanted to be and the finance offer was still low at 1.9% on the 2018 models. My wife called and said if I see something nice, buy it. I did! So I walked in today to browse, looking for 2017 deals and walked out with a beautiful new 2018 model with the latest improvements and colors. I can't be more happier and satisfied that I got a good deal and low financing because I visited Wayne Subaru today. Thank You, Chris

A comfortable ride, an elevated seating position, standard all-wheel drive, and available state-of-the-art safety technology. Excellent fuel economy. Exceptional acceleration thanks to sequential fuel injection. Best AWD system developed so far.

We recently purchased a 2017 Forester from Wayne Subaru. I called on a Friday night just before the end of the day, and asked Jim a dozen questions, which he answered patiently and knowledgeably. I then asked him to beat the price I'd gotten for the same type of car at another dealership, and-after a brief hold-he did! They took care of everything for us, and now we have exactly the car we hoped at a great price. Jim made sure we had all our questions answered and that we felt good about our purchase. Ed was also very helpful, taking us through all the technology on the car. He sat in the car with us until we understood all the gadgets that were new to us. Helpful and friendly. I highly recommend Jim, Ed and Wayne Subaru.

Great SUV for a modest investment! I'm getting an average of 24 mpg and 28 on highway trips. The noise level is low and the comfort is high. I have almost 25000 miles and have not experienced any issues. Buy this car if you want value and reliability!

I just bought a 2017 Outback and I could not be happier! Jim was very informative, professional and wonderful to work with. Initially, I could not make up my mind between the Forester and the Outback. Jim was extremely patient, explained the differences between the 2 and took me out for test drives to help me with my decision. I actually bought my 1st new car from Wayne Subaru back in 1984. There was never any question about where I would go to buy this car... it was going to be Wayne Subaru! Simply the best!

This car has been a good car. It seems to be very reliable. It also has been good in the snow and ice. It also gives good gas mileage.

Working with Jim Malloy was as smooth and seamless as trading-in two cars & purchasing a new one could be. Jim was knowledgeable, precise, and accurate in stepping us through, and consummating, the deal. Jim is emblematic of his dealership, and Wayne (New Jersey) Subaru must be the best U.S. car dealership, bar none. The bar is set very high for Fort Lauderdale's Subaru dealership, where we'll have our first maintenance of the 2018 Outback that we just purchased.

Beautiful, efficient, handles well in all types of traffic. Have taken on 2 lengthy road trips so far and just love it! Easy packing hatch back holds luggage and extras for 3 weeks on the road. traveling caravan style with 3 other vehicles, my Forester voted most comfortable by all passengers and alternate drivers. I rarely need a comfort stop because adjustable seats make every drive like traveling in a lounge chair.
