Used Subaru Forester for Sale in Columbus, OH

I really appreciate the people & the work they do on my 13 year old van at Twins service department, it doesn't run like an older van. The let me know what's going on when I bring in for repairs, they tell me the truth about the repairs & give me options on the priorities of the repairs, they don't talk down to me, since I'm a female & answer any questions that I have & don't make me feel like a dumb female. The amount for repairs are competitive with other vehicle repair shops. Oh, they have a female service adviser who's pretty cool, the cashier, service manager are so down to earth. There is a family like atmosphere when ever I go there, which make me feel comfortable while waiting. I would recommend getting repairs done at Twins Buick.

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.

This was a great experience, I flew in test drove the car, signed some paperwork and I was off. It was smooth. I set everything up prior to coming, they were very plesant on the phone and via emails. Heading down the road I noticed that the trunk was missing the Tire Repair Kit, (in replace of a spare tire). So i sent a picture of the missing pump to Jeff my salesman and they ordered one up for me and had it shipped to my house. It was great, the only issue they promptly fixed to cost to me.

This model of subi has been great, outside of the factory warranty 2.5L engine replacement. Quick and responsive with the 5 speed. The automatic leaves a bit to be desired. Almost 9 inches of ground clearance is Jeep territory and the AWD system inspires confidence in rain, snow and mud.

In looking for a car I had spoke with Jeff Rettinger via email and phone. He answered all of my questions, even those that I asked multiple times. I finally narrowed it down to a 2014 Subaru Impreza and planned to meet with Jeff on December 7th. When I arrived at the dealership Jeff wasn't there because he had a family emergency. I was really hesitant to proceed with another person as I've been to dealerships where the staff does not work as a team and will "steal" sales from each other. Jeff then called me and suggested that I at least do the test drive since I was already there and he assured me that he was fine if I proceeded or we could reschedule. After talking with Jeff and then meeting Gabriel Recker I realized that this dealership was different in that they truly do work as a team and that Jeff would not be slighted in the least. This was a great experience and oddly enough fun because everyone here is extremely knowledgeable, customer oriented and professional. I did purchase the vehicle and then had to do the dreaded "financing". It was then that I met Brandon Jackson in their finance department. Again I was simply blown away, who knew that buying and financing a vehicle could be fun? Once everything was said and done my car payment only increased by $18.00 a month and my annual auto insurance decreased. I now have a newer car with only 27,000 miles on it at an amazing price to boot. Thank you all so much for such a great experience! :-)

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 am writing this letter to applaud for Damion Reed at service department. I am working for Ohio State, and I took our research truck to Bob Caldwell this morning. During the service, Damion showed his professionalism and friendly hospitality. More importantly, he initiated to fix the recall issues to remove safety concerns. I see integrity, honesty and honor from this man, and he will be an great asset to establish Bob Caldwell's reputation.

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 scheduled a 2 pm appointment for an oil change and tire rotation on my 2014 Honda Odyssey. Brought it in just before 2 pm and waited there for it to be done. Made myself a cup of tea and sat in the quiet room" to read a book I brought. At about 2:55 I was told my car was all done and I drove out at 3 pm. Was very pleased. I suggested to Chris that the furniture in the quiet room needed to be vacuumed and he described all the renovations going on at the dealership over the next few months - sounds like there will be new furniture when the building phase is done. I'll be back for my next service needs, whenever that is.

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

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.

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.

My experience with Germain Mazda was absolutely top notch. From the start, looking at vehicles, test driving, understanding financing, payments, and then the overall buying paperwork. I was treated like family and when I go in once a week for my dealer car wash, it's like nothing has changed. The whole staff is great and I just got my first service 5,000miles done- and event that and everyone associated with it was great. Jordan was my sales rep and he was knowledgeable and honest with everything that went on with the buying process. I'll be recommending people and my family to look at Mazda's if they're ever in the car buying world. If it life doesn't require a truck for me later down the road- I'll be a Mazda owner for life because of Germain Mazda.

The older Foresters are much smaller and have plenty of room without feeling like behemoths to drive. I like a small car and was hesitant at first, but this smaller SUV was perfect! Lots of power in the engine, and known for reliability!

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.

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.

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!!!!

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 !

For some reason used cars are hundreds of dollars cheaper in Ohio than MO. Even with a one-way plane ticket, I'd save money if the Kia Optima I had my eye on met expectations. Alex set up an Uber driver to take me from the airport to the dealership. Once there, I met Robb, the salesman. The shop is a small, older garage. Their parking lot is as cramped as it can be. I was wondering if I'd made a mistake. Still, the price was great so I test drove the Kia. It seemed fine, but I had set up a pre-purchase inspection prior to my trip. A tip - always do that regardless of where you buy. It was the best $100 I ever spent. The car had a few issues - the rear brakes needed to be replaced and various sensors were broken or pushed. The mechanic also suggested new tires. Not counting the tires, he said it was about $1500 worth of repairs, and not worth the money if I had to also get this done. Dejected, I took the car back to Auto Botique and explained things to Robb. He called the owner who immediately offered a discount, or to take the car to a mechanic they work with and fix everything! I had to get a hotel for the night, but the got the car done. They later even decided to add the new tires! No extra charge - they just wanted to make sure the car was right for me and in good shape! That is the going the extra mile, and then some! I drove the car over 400 miles home and it did great. It's been three weeks, and everything is good to go. The building isn't spiffy, but that probably helps keep the car costs down. The price was amazing (easily $1000 more in my home town) and they catered to me at every turn. I'd highly recommend!

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.

I tests drove a 2013 Honda on a Saturday. Continued to shop until Wednesday. I called in and spoke with Robb James and made him an offer, he accepted and beat the interest rate by my personal bank. By the time I got to Robb he had the paperwork done and I was in and out within a half hour.

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..?

Can not say enough good things about this dealership they went abouve and beyond my expectations will forever be a customer. Friendly staff also they are quick and efficient you won’t be disappointed.

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.

I had the pleasure of working with Bob Diebold and I had the Best experience. He went over and beyond to help me find the right truck. He also made sure everything was taken care of on the truck. If I have any problems I'll let him know and he takes care of it right away. He genuinely care about his customers. I would Definitely recommend him to anyone who is searching for a 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.

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.

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

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.

I am 54 yrs old and have bought many cars in my life. This is the one and only time I’ve ever bought a car where I wasn’t physically sick by my experience. Denny was pleasant and not pushy! He did everything he could to make my experience at his dealership as enjoyable as possible. From the moment my wife and I walked through the door we felt comfortable to test drive the car we ultimately bought with no aggressive pressure from him to purchase it.

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

Alonzo Horn at Car Source helped us make a purchase when we went shopping for a reliable used car. He was honest with us from the get go, the moment we contacted him about the car we liked, he told us the pros and cons. When we arrived for the test drive (we drove to Grove City from Athens) he promptly let us know the details of the issue and also got the issue fixed once the deal was worked out so that we could take home our car without any worries. Alonzo was friendly in his approach and I appreciate his openness about the issues of the car and the promptness with which it was repaired. I appreciate the whole Team Car Source for making this a wonderful and hassle-free experience and would definitely recommend Car Source to a friend .

I love my Subaru. I am so happy I bought it. I do have a couple of suggestions about something that is a problem. Changing the clock is a real challenge. I get my son, a computer network engineer, to do it for me and he even says he wonders why they made it so difficult. My neighbor said she looks up a video on YouTube to change hers. I need to check that out cause my needs changing right now and will not see my son for another month. Another thing is the odometer could be better to view at a glance. I don't want to figure out where 55 is when I am driving. I still have not figured out how to get my cell phone to work through the car.

I've been taking my Acura TL for service since Honda Marysville's $39/39 minute deal can't be beat. I went yesterday, and for the first time, the line for an oil change was very long. I really needed it done, and luckily I brought some work with me to do while I waited. Jason was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. My wait was a bit over 90 minutes, and sure enough, they stood by their 39 minute guarantee. The work was done, my car was clean, and Jason made me feel like a valued customer. I have 2 Acuras and will only bring them here for service. A+!

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.

We bought a 2015 used Honda Accord EXL here and the experience was fantastic. We dealt with Doug Jordan and he was so helpful in telling us about the car and setting up financing. Really enjoyed chatting with him during the entire transaction. We never felt pressured or rushed. I'd come back here in a heartbeat to buy a car again.

Solid and reliable car. You can take this car anywhere, whether up to the mountains or off the beaten path. Its comfortable and named CCR small SUV champion. It succeeds by focusing on the fundamentals with a space-efficient design, large windows, and big square doors. The result is the easiest access and the best view out of almost any vehicle tested. It also has one of the roomiest rear seats with copious amounts of head and leg room. It adapts various fuel-efficient technologies, including replacing the antiquated four-speed automatic transmission with a new continuously variable transmission (CVT), the Forester delivers quicker acceleration, as well as a class-leading 26 mpg overall and 35 mpg on the highway in our tests making it a solid adventure SUV or commuter.
