Recalls and complaints

A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. There are 1 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Owners filed 74 complaints with NHTSA, most often about unknown or other, forward collision avoidance and visibility/wiper; have those parts checked.

What the figures tell you

It uses the 2.5L 4-cylinder and all-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

The EPA rates it at 8.2 L/100 km combined, so a 300 km weekend uses about 25 litres. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $38.13 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles.

Is it right for your trip?

It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

What the Forester is like

As a compact SUV, it sits higher than a sedan, which makes getting in and loading easier.

A longer test drive

Rent first, buy later: a week with the Forester answers the big questions. Drive the Forester on your commute before you commit to it. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Choosing the right one

Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history.

What it costs to run

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $127.10 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
