Used Subaru Forester for Sale in Monroeville, PA

I came into #1 Cochran Subaru in Monroeville with a trade that I was upside down in payments. My Sales Consultant Harry "Good News" Gossnell was phenomenal. He was very through with describing the features and functionality of our future car, and at the same time had financing running numbers and working on our best deal for my trade and incentives. Harry has made the "dealership" car buying experience an excellent one (honestly, not getting paid to write this review). I thoroughly enjoyed this experience and feel I was well taken care of and was provided all of the information I requested in a timely manner. I highly recommend Harry Gossnell and #1 Cochran Subaru of Monroeville!!! Thank you again!

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 went to #1 Cochran Subaru after I saw 3 cars I was interest in. When I arrived I was greeted by Harry Gosnell. I thought what my terms for a new car were impossible. I explained to Harry the amount I wanted to stay below and that I had no money for a down payment and will just be using my car as a trade in. Again, I thought my terms were impossible. He sat me down and we discussed the 3 cars I was interest in and options for paying. We were able to eliminate 1 car based off of that information. He then showed me the specs for the 2 cars I was considering and I chose a car to test drive. This was the 3rd car I would be buying new. I have NEVER had a test drive as good as the one Harry gave me. He made sure I was able to experience all the features the car had. Once we got back we drove up to the other car and I immediately knew I did not want to look at the other car. We sat back down to start the paper work and I began to have a ton of anxiety about what my payments would be and my options would be. Harry was so thorough about my options and I decided to lease. I have never leased a car and I always thought that it was not economical but he explained that now a days leading is different and it is much more common and in the buyers favor now. We completed the paperwork and he came back to tell me what they would give me for my trade in. #1 Cochran Subaru was more than generous with what they offered me. After that he came back with my payment option for leasing. Again I thought my terms were impossible and I never told Harry my exact terms just that I wanted to stay a certain dollar amount which was the max amount I could afford and I really didn???t want anything that high. Harry came back with exactly almost to the dollar what would be my perfect terms. I was thrilled. I also want to note that I did not want to get a new car at all. I loved my 2009 Subaru Impreza but it was on its last leg so I was very unhappy about having to get a new car. From the moment I walked in and met Harry I was no longer unhappy about getting a new but now was extremely excited. If you are in the market for a new car and you think your terms maybe impossible to meet I can simply tell you not to worry at all and see Harry Gosnell at #1 Cochran Subaru and he can make anything work for you.

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.

This is the third vehicle we have bought at this dealership over the years, all sold to us by Harry Gosnell. Cochran is fortunate to have Harry on their sales staff! He is knowledgeable, friendly, courteous -- all of those qualities to a high degree but especially knowledgeable. He's been with the company for a long time and brings everything he knows about Subarus and the world of car buying to the discussion. #1 Cochran Subaru is an excellent dealership, and Harry is an excellent representative for them. We also talked with Chris Grobmyer this time when paying for the car. He is also very knowledgeable and easy to talk with. Harry and Chris made the car buying experience not only painless but truly enjoyable. The whole experience was a pleasure and I love my new car!

Not a big fan of 7" screens you can't turn off, or that squirrelly feeling when in a cross wind. Thank god this has nither issue. Love the moon roof, the heated seats, the night vision is dead on. The cd player is nice maybe dated but nice. Its more a suv then the older models- not sure if that's good or bad depending on your take i guess.

#1 Cochran Subaru was excellent! We had never dealt with them before, but they were recommended by a relative. Harry, our sales rep, was friendly and personable, taking our expressed needs into consideration. He patiently worked with us to get us a vehicle and a payment plan that we were pleased with! Plus Chris in financing was able to process the paperwork quickly to get us on our way in our new Forester. Definitely the best car buying experience we???ve ever had!

This car has been called one of the safest "vehicles on the road", and with two little granddaughters that we transport almost every day, we need the satisfaction of a safe and reliable vehicle!

I needed a winter car in a hurry and happened to come across Golick Motors on the internet. They had great photos and posted the Carfax online so we knew what we were looking at before making the trip. We called Ed and he was very personable as well as informative. He did not push for something else more expensive and paid attention to exactly what we needed. He was also very up front and honest and had the car warmed up when we got there on a very cold night. We decided to purchase the car and had noticed the interior lights did not work. We were not picking the car up until 2 days later but he said it would be repaired. When we arrived to purchase the car, Ed had all the paperwork taken care of and the lights were repaired. We were in and out in no time at all. He made the buying process quick and simple. Now I can see why this place has been in business so long. They provide great cars at a great price and service above and beyond. Word of mouth is the best advertisement and we will recommend this place to anyone that is in need.

This car meets and exceeds all of my needs. I looked an numerous wagon-like models, because my old car was . VW Passat wagon. I looked at the Outback and the Forester, and immediately chose the Forester because of the feeling of space (more head room, bigger windows, and the moon roof).

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.

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.

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.

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.

Buying a car is stressful even if you have a lot of experience. Historically, it has been time consuming, emotionally taxing and most of us go into a dealership with far less knowledge than we ought for a purchase of the magnitude of a car. Salespeople have (understandable) pressures to move inventory and even the most fair-minded is looking to get the highest price they can get away with. It is harrowing at best. With my experience with Carvana, all of these stresses were eliminated. I browsed inventory as widely or narrowly as I wanted, for as long as I needed. I could dictate pricing ranges that were suitable for me. The car I received was *exactly* the car I examined online, right down to some inconsequential bumper scuffs. Beyond this, and *absolutely unlike* any other online business, I could speak to a *real human being* within a few minutes of calling (I had six or seven conversations with Carvana agents over the 3 1/2 weeks from car selection to car receipt). They either had the answers at hand, or researched them and replied promptly with a follow up call. Delivery coordination and drop off (and test drive) were *painless no pressure* experiences???all preparatory contract paperwork was prepared in advance leaving only title transfer stuff to take care of. It took 45 minutes, tops. (I transacted entirely in cash, so I cannot speak to the process when there is financing.) Honestly, the biggest delay was on *my* end getting the insurance transferred (having to wait on hold with my insurance company for 15 minutes). The car was 100% was described???absolutely no surprises. The images on the web site for my car were not stock images. What I saw was what I got. Naturally, it was clean, filled up with a full tank, with new tires and the whole nine yards. Even got a ???free??? Carvana reusable coffee cup and key chain. Nice touch. The part that I found the most extraordinary was the 7-day money-back guarantee, which pretty much covers a change of mind unless you get into an accident or drive it a ton (over 400 miles, and even then, they???ll take it back after a modest per-mile-over-400 charge). All in all, I was dreading buying a car (and selling my used one) and Carvana made it pleasurable. I am absolutely recommending them to all of my friends and coworkers and I hope (as a relatively new company) they keep up the excellent work.

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.

My wife and I have bought two cars (2016 Mazda CX-5 & 2016 Mazda 3) from #1 Cochran Mazda of North Hills in the past 6 months and we could not be more happy with our experience. We got two great cars at great prices. Our sales consultant, Jamie Birsic, and finance manager, Gerald "JJ" Lavelle were awesome! They even offered to deliver the Mazda 3 to our house since my wife was 9 months pregnant at the time. This level of service is rare and very much appreciated. I will not hesitate to recommend Jamie, JJ, and #1 Cochran Mazda of North Hills to my friends and family, and I will definitely be doing business with them again.

This car is exactly what i was looking for. Despite the higher mileage, i am certain this car will last me the time that i need it to

Thank you to Jaison and CarSense for a great car buying experience. I loved how at ease I was made to feel. I saw a car on the website. I called and told them I'd be in that evening. Going in I was expecting the typical runaround, questions, comments, and 5 minute test drive with some guy riding with me telling me things I already knew. Instead Jaison met me at the door, handed me the keys, and said "Go see if if ya like it!" No pressure, and when I said let's do it, he walked us thru the paperwork. Easy a pie. Thanks again Jaison. It was a pleasure doing business with you.

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 tired of the shopping experience and liked the no nonsense feel of CarSense. I worked with JEFF who went above and beyond to listen my wish lish, meet my requests, and work around my atypical schedule. He was both polite and knowledgeable without being pushy. The lot and cars are spotless and well organized. Pricing is competitive and the standard warranties a major bonus. In the end I decided on a vehicle/color combination they did not have in stock. I didn't buy this time, but there are plenty of vehicles in my future and I will start with CarSense from here on out. They eliminate all of the exasperating aspects of auto shopping.

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

In the market for a new used car and ended up talking with Patrick Williams who showed me around with no pressure and took a lot of time, that I really appreciated. Still looking, but just wanted to share my visit to Car Sense experience.

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 found a one owner 2008 RL at Spitzer to replace my 2008 that was totaled. This was the best dealer experience I have ever had. Jeremy Benson was fantastic, - the dealership treated me as though I was buying a $60,000 RLX Hybrid. Benita in finance was especially helpful, having changed my mind at the last minute about a service contract. Could not have asked for a better experience.

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 !

Bought a Subaru from these folks a few years ago (shopping again now). Vehicle died a couple days after (alternator, I believe). They went _way_ out of their way to help - paid bills, serviced car, and delivered it back to our home 30 miles away on Easter Sunday... refused (mailed) thank you gift - just all around quality people. No other (unexpected) issues over the next few years. Couple of the complaints here seem to reflect/expose the dealer's small size (mom/pop - literally perhaps) - but, that is also an advantage.

This car is meeting all of my needs, with only a few minor tweaks needed from initial purchase - and the seller (a dealer) has been fair, friendly, and open to offering good service packages to accompany sale. Glad I found them through Cars.com filtering options.

Excellent performer in bad weather. Has a terrific ride & it is very comfortable on long trips & can swallows all your gear. This is my go to vehicle for road trips

I didn't end up purchasing a vehicle, but this had no affect on how I was treated. They still did everything they could for me. What a great place. I know I wouldn't receive such polite service elsewhere

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.

Brytni Thomas was amazing!!!she is smart, friendly,honest and knowledgeable of all vehicles. I would most highly recommend brytni Thomas as well as carsense of cranberry to friends and family. Felt comfortable and relaxed. Great overall atmosphere and experience. Thank you!!

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.

Professional crew that cares about me. I'm always treated with respect. They take the time to explain what is wrong and what my options are available.

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

They did an amazing job on detailing and making sure my vehicle was safe for my children. Great customer service and a great place to buy a new/ used vehicle

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.
