Used Subaru Forester for sale near Lockport, NY

Noah in service was so helpful and the work was done very quickly! Everyone was very professional!

The Forester is the first SUV I ever owned. It has had a few issues, but the dealership, Kenny Ross in Irwin Pa, has always been top notch in customer service. First issue was the orignal tires went bald after only 10,000 miles. I called Kenny Ross and they said they would contact corporate. Got 4 new tires at no charge. Next issue I did not even know I had. Took it in for an oil change and they tell me I need a new CVT. Didn't know I had a problem. No charge again. Last issue was a radio that kept giving an error message and would not work. Took four visits to isolate the problem, but now have a new radio that brings in more stations. Again for free. Highly recommend the bumper to bumper warranty. Money well spent.

They treat you like royalty...or that you're in the running for pope. I exaggerate...but it's a great experience...especially with Veronica Lorenz. They got me the SUV I wanted at the best price. KBB cash offer helped too. Thanks to all at WestHerr Toyota.

I have a 2020 Forester with 19000 miles. I love it, especially as a tall and aging man. It it easy to drive, easy to get in and get out. Miles per gallon is great, typically well over 30 mpg in day to day city driving. I have noticed a number of complaints about batteries. I think in 2019-2020 they had a bad supplier of batteries. My experience was total battery failure at about 10000 miles. I had to purchase a replacement from AAA. Such stories were common during that period. I was irritated but received reimbursement even though it is not typical for a dealer/car company to do so. Smart dealers want to keep your business. The only other expenses were created by potholes knocking the car out of allignment and nails in parking lots puncturing the same tire twice! Sweep your xxxx parking lots retailers and restaurants.

Had a great experience at West Herr Toyota. Staff is friendly, knowledgeable and worked hard to get my vehicle.

This is my third Subaru Forrester. I like the newer safety features and ease of handling. The size is perfect for me, not too small or too big! I would recommend if you’re looking for a midsize vehicle.

I purchased the 2023 Wilderness trim in August and I chose it because I live in a very snowy and mountainous area. I certainly needed an upgrade from my trusty 2wd, low-clearance hatchback. I can watch the season change with more peace of mind with its high clearance, AWD and features like Starlink and X-mode ready to step in when called upon. I’m a huge fan of the vehicle’s exterior styling and the interior feels luxurious and durable. The cabin is well-insulated from engine and road noise. One drawback is that the sound system lacks depth even with the base turned all the way up (I don’t have the Harmon Kardon stereo option). I’ve never owned a car with a sunroof before and I love letting in extra daylight and looking up at the cliffs and trees during stops so I can’t imagine life without it, now. Even the low beam headlights provide clear-as-day visibility on the darkest nights, but I’d be worried about blinding other drivers so I’d give more follow distance. Many reviewers seem dissatisfied with its acceleration, but it hasn’t felt underpowered to me and I drive a Chevy Suburban for work. It feels like I’m barely touching the accelerator to cruise up steep grades, but I’m a leisurely driver so my expectations differ. :)

Likes: spacious interior despite modest exterior dimensions, easy to maneuver, great visibility all around, comfortable ride, good traction, handling, and braking, nice interior finish on sport model, strong steering responsive headlights yet they don't blind opposing traffic, very good optional Harmon sound system, numerous effective safety features, low insurance premiums, adequate acceleration..a few cons: actual economy slightly under EPA estimates, seat may be a bit too firm for some but easy to address by adding a thin seat cushion, mandatory sunroof on all but the base model..I wish Subaru would just make that a single option..rough engine start-stop ..however I disable it each time I start engine so it can be a non issue...no reliability issues yet but since this has a cvt and fairly complex safety features, long term reliability is unknown..

Jason, Aron, Liza and JP are an amazing group of people to work with when buying a car. They were so helpful and fostered a fun, relaxed atmosphere. I would highly recommend West Herr for your new Jeep!

This is our second Forester. Our first was a 2011 Premium we bought as a CPO in 2014 and unfortunately went through the headache of excessive oil consumption within months of buying it. Subaru did eventually replace the engine short block on their dime, but only after repeated oil consumption tests and being told by the dealer service department that it was within normal limits. Calling Subaru of America was the only way we got it resolved. I was impressed that they approved the service, and that's the reason we bought another Subaru. We also have a 2018 Outback Premium in our garage--no oil consumption, and no major issues except replacing the radio for failed lighting behind the volume knob and a minor leak in the oil pan (no dripping underneath the car though) at about 42k miles. We like our 2023 Forester Sport overall, and first and foremost we like its excellent safety ratings and features. I will say the ride is much firmer than our Outback which is only a couple hundred pounds heavier. Wish it had a little more storage in the center console and beneath the climate controls. We look forward to many years of driving with the Forester (and our Outback). Based on our experience, I do feel getting a Subaru-backed extended warranty is worth it for peace of mind (we bought them for our first Forester and now our Outback and both eventually paid for themselves). You DON'T have to buy the warranty when you purchase the vehicle. Call different dealers in your state and ask for their price on an extended warranty for your vehicle--we saved hundreds of dollars by doing this. You have until your manufacturer warranty expires to add an extended warranty.

I was having issues with some of the features on my new 2025 Tucson Limited. Particularly the stop and start feature when driving in the Eco mode. I traded in a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Turbo for my new Tucson which, by the way, I bought during the start of a snow storm in Buffalo NY. After not driving a car for 8 years with all the recently developed features, I was intimidated by all of the new technology and that huge infotainment screen. We had a whopper.of a storm, and stormy weather continued for the rest of the winter. My Tucson.sat in the garage for most of the winter. Now here comes the nicer weather and I know I need to learn how to use this new technology. I left a cautious review about the make and model of my car. I was challenged by the stop and startup feature of this new beauty, as well as issues with the car jumping when I stepped on the gas to accelerate from a stop. I contacted my sales person to ask about trading in this 5 month old car, setting the wheels in motion to resolve my issues. I heard from Hyundai Corporate and had a lengthy conversation with Gordon which started me on my way to "develop a relationship with my Tucson." He left me with suggestions on how I should go about this process and set up an appointment to get back to me on how I was doing. My salesman set me up with.service to ensure there were no mechanical problems. I spent days and hours researching my vehicle.and how to deal with the issues I was experiencing. By the time my service appointment came around, I was knowledgeable about different driving modes, how to inactinate the stop and start feature in eco, and had researched comparable suv's to see if there was another vehicle that was more driver friendly. None compared to the Tucson Limited's features i was.so accustomed to in my 2017 Santa Fe Sport. I met with Eric, in service, and we went for a drive. I had already mastered changing my driving mode from eco to normal and turning off the stop and go feature I disliked so much. My car did not stop dead anymore when backing in and driving out of my garage which allowed me to fine tune my vehicles position without having it jump when I needed that few inches more and stepped on the gas ... I was so relieved to know I had control of the vehicle without worrying about going through the back of my garage breaking into the structure of my hallway.and inside of the house. At My appointment with Eric and our drive using the features, I learned and realized even more. One important issue is that I am no longer driving a turbo. Mistake and lack of foresight on my part. The difference in cabin space from the Santa Fe to the Tucson. The lack of ease in using the navigation feature in the Tucson as opposed to the 2017 Santa Fe model. The realization of the changes in the driving experience over the past 8 years due to governmental changes in gas consumption and economy, as well as the climate change issue. I am satisfied with my newly learned driving experience, but still nagging me in the background is the decision I made to trade in my Santa Fe Sport. In my estimation, it was the BEST vehicle I owned during my 50 plus years of driving experience. As a 4 times over purchase Hyundai customer, I will keep an eye on upcoming Hyundai models that are not boxy and have some sporty style and a turbo engine. In summary, thank you to the sales and service departments at West Herr Hyundai who assisted me in resolving my issues!

The radio and the heat settings leave a lot to be desired. If you’re looking for a heater setting, you won’t find it. Nothing annoys me more than unrequested updates on flood watch/warning. it just can’t be tailored to exactly where you live. But every 6 minutes is a bit of overkill. And our previous Forester had a tray in the middle storage (glove box). Even though we asked our salesman about that, we have heard nothing. Missing the change tray a lot.

I highly recommend West Herr for new or used vehicles. My salesman, Emmanuel Conteh, is a true joy to work with. The minute you sit down in his cubicle, you know you are dealing with a man that is honest, knowledgeable and a joy to work with. He made my car leasing such a breeze! WNY is fortunate to have West Herr dealerships!

I have owned my 2017 Forester since late 2016. Except for normal maintenance I've had no problems with thr vehicle. All of the warning systems work very well,they have saved me from accidents numerous times. The automatic seat repositioning when some one else has used my is really handy eliminates all the adjusting needed to get the position back to my needs. Traction and controll during winter and bad weather are excellent. My forrester get used like a truck at times. Great overall car.

Very happy with my sales person I would recommend West Herr Chevrolet i was very pleased how we were treated and bought my car after test run price was good and my trade in was good went to other dealers and left.

I had to make a 5 1/2 hour drive recently and loved how smoothly my car drove, especially using cruise control with “eyesight” so it slowed when I was too close to the car in front of me. I couldn’t even feel it; I watched the speedometer. Love the safety features and extras like seat warmers and large sunroof.

Buying a car here was an absolute breeze! The team was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire process quick and stress-free. I found the perfect vehicle at a great price, with no pressure and full transparency. If you’re looking for the best place to buy a used car with excellent customer service and same-day financing, this is it! Highly recommend for anyone shopping for a reliable car.

Had this car for seven years, never any problems, very low mileage. Very nice to drive, smooth gas mileage around 30 mpg. Traded it in for a new forester, I actually was ready to cry, when I left it. Very reliable.

Paul was great he has great customer service skills would highly recommend west herr Honda for vehicle service

Bought my 2015 Subaru 2.0XT Touring brand spanking new off the Subaru dealership's lot. Have owned it all this time about 9 years straight. Take care of your car with regular oil changes, servicing at recommended intervals, and your car will take care of you. Performed the required recalls during service periods. Not 1 single regret on owning this car, ever. It rides smooth and true. Had a clicking issue in the ball joints 2 years ago which Subaru fixed free of charge. Other than that, this car has been my dream machine.

Bidleman Chevrolet is hands down the best vehicle purchase experience I have ever had. From start to finish they were friendly and accommodating in every facet of the purchasing process. The team leader Dylan, salesperson Carli, and the entire staff were fantastic. I drove nearly 250 miles to buy this car and I would do it again in a heartbeat to work with this dealership again. I will also tell everyone I know that this is the place to find a vehicle for a great price with a seamless buying process. 10 out of 10.

I like the solid feel of the car and the sturdy and high ride. Good acceleration. It would be a better SUV if the ground clearance was at least 10” or 12”, with the exhaust pipe properly tucked away!

Next to top rating in Consumer Reports. Lives up to its rating 100%. Only concerns thus far, after three weeks of use. 1) takes time to learn use of various electrical and mechanical controls -- after 20+plus years of VW Jetta ownership, "a lot is different." Just have to be patient learning all the new features. 2) Auto-safety features (staying in lanes, braking distance warning, etc.) are helpful to some less-attentive drivers but annoying to this long-experienced user. Fortunately, they can be turned off and stop the chirping.

The process was seamless. The Sales Manager was informative, patient, thorough and easy to work with. Negotiating was a little challenging but I am satisfied with my purchase !

Bought this car three years old with less than 50K miles on it. I’ve loved it since we got it. It has been very reliable, fun to drive, with pretty minor drawbacks. For example the maintenance has been very minimal. I haven’t noticed ANY oil burning or leaking (I have personally changed the oil every 3-4K miles). Sometimes on long trips it will burn some oil and need a top off, which the car alerts us to. Overall I’d buy this car over and over as long as it fit my needs at the time. Currently looking into an Ascent for future hockey trips and other trips.

I purchased a 2014 Ford Transit from this dealership last week. Andrew, as well as the owner, were very professional and easy to work with. The Transit was sold at a very fair price and I was able to drive it off the lot sooner than expected. Overall, it was a very pleasant and stress-free purchase with a friendly staff.

I've owned a 2011 Subaru Forester for years and it has been supremely dependable through northern Michigan weather. Super cold to humid and muggy, it's been a comfortable, reliable ride throughout.

Joe and Laurie are great people to deal with. No pressure, trouble free process. Everything was handled. I was given a complete run down of the vehicle. Would Definitely recommend this dealer.

Love my 2018 limited Forester , Great as you the very comfortable love how it drives good gas mileage so far.. highly recommend this car great for transporting kids also… Very quiet driving experience

When it's time for a new vehicle, Demani Barnes is very knowledgeable and has an excellent can-do attitude. I highly recommend dealing with Demani and manager Amy Sabers. Thank you Amy and Demani for finding my new ride!! We'll be back!!

Spontaneous windshield cracked to 2 1/2 feet in just seconds! No stones seen, without warning, bang. The part cost $850.00 more for eye-sight calibration! Subaru dealer said total cost, around $2000!

A little slow on shop work, part looked at had a part pushed in place had a park checked a second time and it still felt back out

I recently had my car stolen and totaled. I actually work for the dealership and enjoy the work I do with the company. Mr krohn has been helping me out for the past month and a half with a car. It has been difficult but with the patience and time he has given my mom and I, I could not be more grateful for him! He worked with my mom and I till the very end and has been nothing but helpful. I ended up getting a 2019 subaru forester. Lots of room and a perfect vehicle into the middle of my adult life. I hope this car lasts me through the next few years. Thank you Mr Steve Krohn for your hard work and the kindness you have shown us.

Fantastic customer service from Nicole in the service department. She was professional , engaging and knowledgeable. We are die hard Subaru and West Herr fans and Nicole only reinforced our faith in the dealership.

My only complaints are, it could use a little more power and a little less road noise. Otherwise, I'm very pleased with my Subaru Forester Touring.

Robin is the best service advisor ever!! So helpful and trustworthy and kind. Goes above and beyond!! 10/10

This is my first Subaru Forester and I could not be happier with the car. Super pleasant dealer experience and lots of features for the price. Will definitely get another Subaru.
