Is a 2009 Forester a good small suv?
Does anyone one one of these…. I’m looking for something very reliable and like this vehicle… from what I have read Subaru still has problems with engine quality from time to time. If you have one can you tell me the good, bad and ugly…
2009 Subaru Forester 2.5X 4-cyl MT
ConsumerReports Overview
Highs: Fuel economy, ride, handling, rear seat, visibility, controls, access, driving position, crash-test results.
Lows: Driver’s seat lumbar support, notchy shifter.
The Forester has always been a sensible, practical, and affordable vehicle, and the redesigned 2009 model is even better. The base engine is an adequate 2.5-liter four-cylinder; the turbocharged version in the XT delivers effortless acceleration. They deliver 22 and 20 mpg overall, respectively. The Forester has an impressively comfortable ride and it handles well, with responsive, communicative steering. It also has a roomy rear seat, standard curtain air bags and electronic stability control, and improved interior quality. We found the seats in the base model lack good lumbar support. Crash-test results are impressive.
