Used Subaru Forester for Sale in San Jose, CA

The 2019 Subaru Forester fits my 6'5.5" 15 year old son, and there's spare head room for when he grows taller. I researched multiple vehicles. This one had the room, gas mileage, and most of the creature comforts I was looking for. I also has great pickup, responsive handling, and a smooth ride. It's much smoother than my 2017 Mazda CX-5 (a lead butt).

Giovanni really knew the car, it’s capabilities and attributes. A real pleasure to shop with a bright and engaging salesperson. He made car shopping fun.

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 was able to get in next day service (awesome) on a 30k mile service on my 2016 Subaru Forester. Tons of available times to choose from, which is rare with other service departments. Josh was awesome. Went through my service history, explained what needed to be done thoroughly, and was spot on with the wait time estimate. I even asked him "is it REALLY going to be 2 hours? Or is it going to be more like 3?" He said no, his estimates are usually spot on, and what do you know, he was right. Just 4 stars for the small waiting area, but it can't be helped. There's free wifi, popcorn and coffee, and terrible TMZ on TV to entertain the masses.

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.

Amazing service! Want to thank Jon Grande for going above and beyond well helping me choose the rite car for me and my family. He was extremely patient with me while I couldn’t decided what car I wanted. In the end I didn’t feel pressured or rushed into anything I wasn’t going to be happy with. Jon Grande was beyond helpful throughout the whole process.

This Is our 2nd Forester it is awesome has exceeded all expectations drives well has amazing safety features perfect size highly recommend to everyone you will not be disappointed

Samantha Bernal is very personal and a pleasure to buy a car from! Highly recommend her when looking for a Subaru! Didn’t feel pushed into buying any thing and they worked with our budget. Thanks Subaru!

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

Love my 2017 Outback!! Great ride, great gas mileage!! My dog and I are looking forward to many trips!! Samantha made buying experience hassle free!

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).

Made a appointment with Russell to test drive a red Subaru Forrester. Car was ready and wife and I hopped in and drove around San Jose. Had a question about down shifting and asked to drive a Outback. Russell produced the car in no time and again we drove around San Jose and even up and down a hill to test the down shifting ability of the Outback. All during the time, Russell answered all questions we had, he was very knowledgeable about the Subaru products. We decided on the Outback if we could agree on the price and the financing. Again Russell and his team including Alvin and Oseas were able to get the price below Kelly Blue Book without any haggling and the usual song and dance you have to do with most dealships. Russell also got the special flavor of the month financing we wanted and we drove our new car off their lot without a regret. I would recommend Russell and his team of experts if you are interested in buying a car or if you like some free popcorn and coffee/tea.

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.

Alvin Lee was super helpful in the buying process. Not only did he answer all my questions, but he was very patient throughout the whole process. He was able to get us a great deal and I walked out with a brand new WRX!

It is awesome! The ammenities are awesome. This car exceeds all of our expectations. Best decision we have made in a kobg time. Would recommend this model, most definitely.

Just simply amazing. This gentlemen knows what he is doing. He was kind and curtious. He went out of his way I be the course of MONTHS to help me. He needs a bonus or something to show for his dedication to customer service.

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..?

John and Alvin were helpful, but not pushy, which was really good. The fellow in finance was wonderful, obviously very busy that day, but did not make us feel rushed, and gave us excellent advice.

Great dependable cars...I have one with 265K on it and as soon as I have the radiator replaced I will give to the grandkids. Comment

Very positive staff from initial phone call to working with Finance and driving off the lot! I knew this was where I wanted to buy based on how straightforward and prompt Alex was, I shopped around and this was where I found the best deal.

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 !

Awesome experience! Drove away with a great car. Great customer service from Gerald, friendly and informative.

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.

Jiawei Cao is awesome' very helpful and honest. Will do as he says or comes very close he gave us a great deal on our new lease!

Josh, in the service department, found discounts which lowered our bill. We were also given a free car rental during our service period and had several follow up texts to ensure that the car was running smoothly.... All during the holiday rush!

Great service, everyone was courteous & friendly. It was a pleasure going to Capitol Ford!

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.

Service department is outstanding, clearly five stars. On an absolute scale, the buying process was only 2 stars, but I gave them 4 by comparison with my experiences buying cars at other dealers -- which would rate -5 stars! I bought my Lincoln MKZ hybrid there 5 years ago, and have used them for service throughout, so I have significant experience. I've been buying cars for 50 years, so also have a lot to compare with.

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

Great group of guys at the service department, they replaced the radio in our 2016 Subaru Outback, very happy with the new head unit installed(no more lines). Friendly and courteous service your crew. Hope they keep it that way!

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 have cars of different makes. The Honda dealership if Fremont, CA, has by far the best customer service. I even have my "personal" service consultant. He is familiar with me and my car, and everything is expedited. Unfortunately Honda does not make performance cars (Si is front wheel drive), so as much as I like Honda, they just make "family cars". And I'm a retired guy, who wants to go fast (or at least looking like he's going fast).

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 was the easiest and fastest car purchase in the last 25+ years (4 cars). No upsale. They had the car wanted in stock. The salesman and sales manager were both great. Paperwork was done quickly and w/o error.

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!
