Subaru Forester parts reviews

After determining the root cause of the noise being the A/C compressor, I did indeed cut the belt right off...Success! The screeching sound stopped immediately.

Subaru forester. Mine is a 15. Comfortable, decent gas mileage, able to seat 4 with stuff in back. Kayaks fit on roof. AWD helps in rain and snow. Easy to do basic maintenance, but spark plugs SUCK.

I live in Canmore and drive a Subaru forester wilderness with the Yokohama G015 (3Peak) and I have never gotten stuck, slid out of control, or had any concern.

First time I got aftermarket with calibration. Second time I skipped calibration, think it was like $500 and they did the install at my house. Eyesight works fine 2yrs later.

I just had mine done on my 2019 Forester with 112K miles for the same reason I see yours - the bushings are shot. It made a night/day difference in handling. I had noticed the car had gotten less "planted" and more skatey on the road over any rough pavement or bumps.

Budget for snow tires. AWD is not magic, and you generally can't use chains with AWD systems. In terms of cars, Subarus are good and reliable. I've owned two Foresters.

Yes. The glass is weak - our last forester was a disaster until it finally cracked but I swear we would get chips driving down the road constantly

Ive owned my 25 Forester Wilderness 1 month now. 1 week in passing vehicle kicks up a tiny rock and I get my first rock chip. Then a week later merging on highway I get 2 more little ones on lower left of windshield.

Two days into owning my 2025 my wife noticed a small crack on the INSIDE of my new Forester. Fast forward two months I take the car on my first longer road trip. First day of the trip I catch a rock to the middle of the windshield and have a pretty bad chip.

I currently have a chip in my 25 forester, chipped at ~8k miles. Been waiting for the OEM windshield for a little over a month now and will be about another month before it’s estimated to arrive at the shop. Frustrating process
