Used Subaru Forester for Sale in Riverside, CA

Anticipated buying a Rav4 since I am Toyota guy. My wife drives a 2011 Forester so I was not considering another Forester. I was so disappointed with the Rav4 and the CRV still has visibility issues ( and no BSM), I decided to give Subaru another look. What a difference between the 2011 and the new Forester. Subaru engineers improved almost everything except visibility which is still terrific even though it is a larger vehicle. The one thing that did not improve is ride quality. The new model rides more like a SUV than the 2011 but has better seats and a fairly quiet cabin. Gas mileage agrees to sticker which is terrific. We have had no issues with either of our Foresters. Update. Owned 2 years. Still very happy with vehicle. No issues. Audio system with HK speakers and bluetooth very good. Telephone technology is lame at best but not that important to me. Wouldn't hesitate to buy a Forester again.

Jan. 7, 2017 update -- We kept the Forester for about a year and then traded it in on a new 2016 Mazda CX-5, a far superior vehicle. For one thing, handicapped and ill people who need a seat cushion don't have to sit in the back seat.

not safe: intermittent temporary loss of power up to 4 sec. service dept ran dx test & then refused to acknowledge the prob & stated the car is safe to drive.I refused to drive it and traded it in for a Honda CRV.there was recall & notice sent out a year later on a part that cracked & caused this.i was very disappointed in the car & how the dealer handled me. I would never buy a Subaru again. I was very disappointed in Subaru. FYI!:recently Subaru had recall for this problem!
