Seller’s notes about this car

This 2012 Subaru Forester 2.5X, has a Satin White Pearl exterior and an interior color. 159266 miles. Stock Number 54625AA. You can connect with us by calling 956-217-0127. OTHER NOTABLE FEATURES AND OPTIONS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT:Alloy Wheel Value Package ($400 value)
  • 16' X 6.5JJ Aluminum Alloy Wheels
  • Black Roof Rails
Convenience
  • Cruise control with steering wheel mounted controls. Set it and forget it. Road trips used to be stressful, until cruise control set the pace. Simply set the desired speed using the steering wheel mounted controls and it will maintain that speed without driver intervention. This can help minimize driver fatigue and improve overall fuel economy. Resting your right foot is right at your fingertips thanks to cruise control with steering wheel mounted controls.
Powertrain and Mechanical
  • All wheel drive - all weather drive. In wet or slippery conditions the more grip your wheels can maintain, the safer your drive. All wheel drive powers both the front and rear axles, allowing the center differential to redirect power to the wheels with greater traction when slip is detected. So get a firm grip on the road, better acceleration and added peace of mind in poor weather conditions with all-wheel drive.

  • The Flat-4 (also known as boxer or horizontally-opposed) engine design produces less vibration than conventional designs. Its low center of gravity contributes to increased handling stability. Its lower height offers packaging advantages.
Safety and Security
  • Brake assist - Stop right there. Something jumps out into the middle of the road and you need to stop now! With brake assist, you will. It uses the speed of the brake pedal's travel to sense panic braking, then applies all available power to boost your stopping power. Brake assist can stop the accident before it is one.

This vehicle is burning oil; avoid it according to the internet price being cheap based on its value. In addition to this, avoid these model years between 2009-2013.

Owns this car

I’m the 3rd owner of a 2012 Subaru Forester purchased at approx 175,000 miles and it still runs pretty good! It does burn oil up pretty quickly and mine has issues with reading the levels and won’t give me a warning light so i check the dip stick often. Mine did have exhaust issues and had to replace a rested out piping from the cat back, but mufflers were still good. Also the Oxygen sensor was a problem for awhile, which you can only use on brand for it to work properly. Gas mileage is decent for the size of the vehicle and its age. Only wish the front seats went back more bc my taller girlfriend who is 5’11 with long legs struggles to fit and be comfortable in the passenger seat.

Vehicle not reliable in cold weather.

By Linda Wyatt from Princeton, WV
Owns this car

Bought new in November 2011. Has used oil from the beginning. Always been serviced by the dealer we bought the vehicle from. 85,500+- miles. Now bumps in rear when weather is cold when changes first gear. Very hard thump. Then runs ok. We feel its just a matter of time for a major problem.
