Used 2017 Subaru Forester for Sale in Spokane, WA

I have shopped/purchased vehicles via dealerships in the past, and I have to say this was absolutely the best buying experience I???ve been a part of. A new vehicle is often a daunting experience, especially when it is a necessity, rather than a scheduled upgrade. We contacted Subaru via an online inquiry. We did not have a trade-in, as we had just received the news that my current car was beyond fixable, (and the reason for our inquiry). Aaron Hauer responded to our online inquiry very promptly. Though we live in Spokane, my partner works in Alaska, which can make these moments a bit tricky. Aaron was phenomenal in working around the logistics of spotty reception, time zones, and a few thousand miles. I cannot say enough about the sincere, non-pressuring, informative, and truly above and beyond, customer service of not only Aaron, but the financial team as well. Tyler was friendly, professional, and incredibly patient with my questions; which was greatly appreciated during my first ???brand new??? car purchase. I feel exceptionally good about our purchase of a 2016 Crosstrek, and very confident in the continued support of the team at the dealership. These gentlemen truly speak volumes for the brand, and the team at Spokane Subaru. I cannot say thank you enough!!!

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 !

We live near the Canadian Border at elevation in the mountains so my search to replace our 20 year old Honda CRV began online....originally with Honda after the first of the year. The task was to find the best vehicle for our needs at the best offered price....reducing the number of 260 mile RT's to a dealership....any dealership. My first attempts at online shopping were met by a circus of responses and various versions of the truth depending on the time-of-day....weather...or other unknown variables. Additionally...we were being visited my daughter and family from Zealand so time spent with dealers would subtract from what was most precious to us. I asked each to contact me by e-mail only....ignoring the USE OF the"required" phone number to obtain online quotes. Honda called repeatedly.. Josh Popham not only cut away the clutter between vehicle and price but we actually felt LISTENED TO and we only spoke by telephone the morning we were coming in to complete our purchase. Otherwise all was completed more-than-satisfactorily by e-mail. Now....at 71+ yrs old I am no techno geek but in this case online worked superbly well. ONLY...because Josh was honest...direct....open and LISTENED. Our buying experience with Subaru of Spokane not only changed the brand of vehicle but our confidence in reasonable transactions. Josh it to be commended and we wish him continued success at Honda of Spokane.

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!

I was so pleased with my total repair/recall work that was finished! Eric Garcia at the front desk was courteous,and knowledgeable about my appointment and my cars history! Matt in the repair department was outstanding in his knowledge Of additional needed tests on my car. He was extremely courteous and kept in touch throughout the repairs needed. Valerie in the main office also needs huge kudos for all the work she did getting the VIN number problem solved! Please let the above employees know of my satisfaction with their efforts, kindness and courteous ways!

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.

This is my second vehicle purchased from Vroom in the last 12 months, and I can't imagine ever buying a used car from a brick-and-mortar dealership again. Vroom offers a terrific selection of late model used vehicles. The pictures really make it easy to know what the car looks like. I purchased a 2015 BMW 5-series, and the Vroom price compared to a similar make/model/mileage vehicle from CarMax was $3,000+ cheaper. I selected my vehicle over a few weeks of looking at photos. I filled out a credit application online, and they immediately called me to finalize the app, discuss rates and payments, and to get my $500 deposit. I received a loan package via FedEx 2 days later, signed all the paperwork, and sent it back in the pre-paid FedEx envelope they provided. About 3 days later, I started getting emails to schedule delivery. The process only took 9 business days from the moment I made the deposit to the moment I got my vehicle. The vehicle was clean, just as described, and runs great. Now I just need to get a state inspection and add this to my insurance policy, and the tags will be mailed to me in a few weeks. Thankfully, Vroom gives me a 60-day temp tag so there is ample time to receive the plates. This is the future of car-buying, and the 7-day money back guarantee makes it the perfect way to purchase a used vehicle.

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 am a car enthusiast! I spend way too much on cars ??? but I work 24/7 and it???s my only hobby. This review will be a bit on the long side, simply because I have so much to say about my experience with Vroom. My wife gets frustrated with me because I talk so often about how amazed I am with Vroom in every aspect! I bought my first car in 1968. Back then I couldn???t afford much, but since about 1979 I???ve purchased some very cool cars. I even bought a brand new Rolls Royce back in 1985. I???ve owned: exactly 10 Mercedes, Jaguar, Ferrari, Audi R8, BMW, Range Rover and several others. So when it comes to dealing with car dealerships, I feel like I???ve become rather expert ??? AND a huge skeptic of car dealerships!!! When you buy a high-end car, you lose SOOO MUCH money, as soon as you drive it off the showroom floor. So the last time we purchased cars, we decided to purchase nearly-new cars with very low mileage on them. We bought an Audi R8 and a Mercedes SL63. And it turned out GREAT. No regrets. So now it was time to sell those cars and buy two more. I happened across Vroom.com in my Internet search, and found the perfect cars for both my wife and I at the same place ??? Vroom.com. The cars are nearly identical to the same cars we???ve been driving, but just newer. A 2014 Audi R8 and a 2014 SL63 ??? both with about 3,500 miles on them. Even the same colors as our previous cars. I got bids from several companies to sell our cars to. Vroom offered the highest amounts on both of our cars!! And it was FAR easier to sell to them than any other company. Unbelievably simple! And the prices for the newer 2014 cars was extremely fair. I flew out from South Orange County, California to Vroom to look at and drive both cars. Vroom picked me up at the airport and brought me back to the airport. I was extremely impressed with Vroom and their showroom. And without exception, every single person I???ve spoken with and dealt with at Vroom has been not only helpful and enthusiastic, but GENUINELY concerned about making me happy. Even after the sale they keep contacting me to see how I???m doing and to ask if there???s anything that I need. They got me great financing! Less than 3% interest rate. I had no clue that you could do that with a ???used??? car. No other buying or trade-in experience I???ve ever had comes even close to how great, simple and fast this was. Oh???and they shipped the cars from Texas to us at NO CHARGE, and picked up our two cars at the same time. And the nice young man who delivered the cars was fabulous. He was so very, very careful with our cars. And not only do they have their guarantee ??? I believe you have a week or so to drive the car, and if you don???t like it, they will take the car back. They even told me several times (even after I???d purchased the cars) that if for some reason we decided we did not want the cars, they would come pick them up and truck them back to Texas at NO COST to use. Unbelievable!! Well, my wife is now also so impressed that she no longer is frustrated with me for talking about Vroom so much, and telling all my friends. In fact, I???ve already asked Vroom to look for a car for my daughter. I now would not think of getting her car anywhere else than Vroom. I mentioned before that I???m a skeptic when it comes to car salesmen and dealerships. So if I was you reading this, the first thing I???d wonder is, ???Why is this guy writing this review? Are they paying him???..???? Well, I don???t know any of the people at Vroom. I spent so much time on this review simply because I believe that when people deserve credit, and they treat you so nicely, you should reciprocate and sing their praises. My name is Dr. Rod Kurthy. I???m a dentist and I own a dental products company in Southern California.

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.

I've been having our cars serviced at Autonation Spokane Valley for 10 years and never had a bad experience. I really appreciate working with Mat Keller in the service department and RJ the Toyota Tech.

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 would like to say Thank You to Mark Jones and the people at Wendle Ford for making my car buying experience ever!! Mark was very helpful and a truly sincere person. I reccomend Mark Jones and the Wendle Ford team for purchasing your next vehicle.

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.

Way less stressful than any car lot. Shop online or go on in. Pick a car, or several cars. Test drive as you please. I took mine to my mechanic/ body shop for a look over. It checked out fine so I made the purchase. No frills, but no games either. .and I saved a bunch of money.

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.

My wife needed a new car so we traded her Jeep in for a 2019 Subaru Outback. We had the best salesman, ???Rich??? Stephan Richmond. He was so amazing with my wife???s trade and purchase that we contacted him a week later to get us into another new 2019 Crosstrek. He found us the exact car we wanted and price point. We both drove away with our dream cars and know we will be Rich???s customers for life. Subaru of Spokane is a wonderful dealership and we???re so excited to drive!!!

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.

Had a great experience with the service department. Though it took much longer than I expected, I was check on multiple times by multiple people. I will be back for other service work.

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.

Scott Grombley was the kindest service person I have ever come across! It's not always fun to hear that you need to shell out repair dollars, especially at Christmas. Scott showed compassion and sympathy which made the news much more bearable to hear. Even though it took a tad longer to repair due to a damaged part (no fault if yours), I was 100% satisfied with my experience. Thank you Scott for your A++ customer service!

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 experience was outstanding as always with Kevin in charge of my account at BMW of Spokane Service Department. I was impressed this time specifically with the challenges that were presented due to higher than average numbers of customers with service issues; issue that were happening to the entire team. No one of the service team was impatient, every customer seemed to be satisfied that they were being attended to and there was excellent BMW team communication happening with the men in the outer part, in the service drive through/drop off and the customer facing team handling the paperwork, phone calls etc. This particular service team would be a benefit and selling point to any sales team. Excellent customer service and support brings customers in when it is time to buy. Kevin always extends me impressive, professional customer service no matter how large or small my issue is. He's fair, excellent with his communications and is sincere in his interest in each one of his clients. Thank you!

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 typically try to avoid dealerships but stopped by Northwest Motorsport one evening as they had a nice looking Duramax sitting on the lot. Met Fred initially and had a great interaction with him. Fred connected me with Joey and in the end they did such a great job that I bought the truck. Met Joe, the GM I believe, and he was upfront and a straight up guy. Had a slight mechanical issue after I got the truck home but Joe and Joey made it right. Great transaction and I would definitely go back for any future purchases.

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.

Tom and the crew at Hallmark, 509.cars, treated my wife, who has to use a cane, and I extremely well. Going the extra mile to make my wife comfortable. There seemed to be a relaxed no pressure attitude which I liked. Jessie, one of the salesmen, showed us a beautiful truck that was perfect for us, even the color was what my wife wanted. Tom the manager gave me a great trade in on my SUV and threw in a years maintenance and cleaning . Bob in finance was a pleasure to work with as well. The truck I bought was absent a spare tire so Tom ordered up a new one for my, used as is, truck and Cameron, head of service, fixed me up and even rotated and balanced the 20" wheels. Cameron was pleasant and easy to work with. I and my wife were well pleased with the overall experience and will be back. Thanks 509.cars.

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.

I came to your facility for service on my '06 Baja. While there, I was escorted upstairs to view some vehicles (for my daughter) and decided to purchase a new (2017) Forester. All the people I dealt with (Steve, Aaron, Mary, Murray) were extremely friendly, helpful and seemed quite knowledgeable. I returned the next day with my daughter and we were pleased with the Forester and its many features. After a couple of major setbacks (on the financing), Steve and Mary went the extra mile to make it happen and we (my daughter and I) are now the owner(s) of a fabulous new Forester! The way I was treated at your dealership have made me a customer for life!!

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 was referred to Texas Direct Auto/Vroom by a good friend and I???m glad I decided to go with them for my car purchase! I initially got Billie as my car sales personnel, but she seemed to be very pushy and just aiming to make quick sale; which is something that made me very uncomfortable. After speaking with her for a while I advised I would give her a call back to speak with my financial advisor on proceeding further on this process with Vroom. When I called back I got a different agent that saw in the system that saw I was talking to Billie and advised me that she would give me a call back in 5 mins, well 30 mins passed and I called back upset because I did not hear back from her after she ran my credit and didn???t like the fact I wasn???t trying to put 2500 down. My credit score was excellent I had a 740, but I didn???t have enough credit history she said is the reason why she kept asking me to put so much money down on 23k 24k car. The last time I called upset after not hearing anything from her a gentleman by the name of Shannon Humbles answered and I advised him that I did not want to work with Billie anymore because she made me feel very uncomfortable and I felt like she didn???t personally care about helping me through the process of the purchase. Shannon is an ALLSTAR!! He went over and beyond the call of duty to help me make this purchase!!! 7 days later my vehicle sits in my parking garage and I love it! The process was so easy to purchase, I had to put 1500 which is the standard, instead of 2800 that???s Billie was demanding that I put down! Please go with Vroom! I saw a couple bad reviews and I know every process has its flaws, but I???m here to tell you, they work! They are a very good company and I look forward to making another purchase with them for my girlfriend???s Christmas gift! Thanks Shannon and Vroom!!!!

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!

Our salesman Justin was professional, knowledgeable and great to work with. He made us feel confident in our choice and the experience was unlike any other car purchase I have experienced. I would recommend this dealership as well as the salesman to anyone looking for a Subaru!

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.

this car dealer have got it together and it was pleasure to vist this shop the most shocking was the variety of complimentary refreshments made the time flight away .

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.

Deb and Terry were were friendly and helpful. We traded in our old honda and got a great deal on a new one. We'd definitely come back. Also had warrantee work done before we traded and the service Dept was very helpful.

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.

Bought my first Subaru after looking at Foresters for months. My neighbor happens to be a salesman for Parker and brought a car I was interested in to the house. I liked the way it drove and the low mileage, price was @ right. Next day went to the dealership and saw a nicer one with lower miles and more bells & whistles! ended up buying it for @ two grand more but still at a good price! Jeff Y. is a great neighbor and a good salesman, made the buying experience a pleasure. Thanks Jeff!

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.
