Before you sign for the Forester

NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Owners filed 31 complaints with NHTSA, most often about forward collision avoidance, unknown or other and air bags; have those parts checked.

The figures, translated

Power comes from the 2.5L 4-cylinder, driving through an automatic (CVT). It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive sends power to all four wheels, which helps on snow and wet roads; good tires still matter most.

A combined rating of 8.2 L/100 km works out to about 25 litres per 300 km. Expect about $12.71 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

Space and size

Its SUV body gives a high seating position and an easy load height.

When the Forester makes sense

It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Drive it on your own roads

Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Forester answers the big questions. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class.

Money matters

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $127.10 at our price setting.

Which one to look for

If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
