2017 Subaru Forester Premium

Factory specification

As filed by Subaru with NHTSA for this build. Fields the filing does not record are left out entirely — a missing row means no recorded value, not a missing feature.

Gross vehicle weight rating is the loaded ceiling set by the manufacturer, not the car's own weight.

Driver assistance, as built

• Forward collision warning Optional
• Crash imminent braking Optional
• Lane departure warning Optional
• Lane keeping assistance Optional
• Adaptive cruise control Optional
• Blind spot warning Optional

Systems the filing does not record are not listed above. Check the window sticker of the exact car before you rely on any single feature.

What this build asks today

Asking prices of live dealer listings decoded to this exact configuration — narrower than the trim-level figure, because every car counted here shares the same engine, transmission and drivetrain.

$14,967 median asking price · 7 listings · as of Sep 6, 2026

Too few listings to publish a price range — with 7 cars on the market, the cheapest and the dearest are single cars, not a spread. The median above is what they ask in the middle.

The same build, other model years

Subaru used the VIN pattern JF2SJADC for 5 model years. Nothing but the year changes between these pages, so the price gap between them is depreciation on an identical car.

How this VIN pattern is read

A 17-character VIN carries two kinds of information: what was built, and which one it is. This page is the first kind — the nine highlighted positions.

NHTSA safety ratings

Crash-test results are published per model year and body style, so they cover the 2017 Subaru Forester as a whole rather than this build alone.

1 recall campaign is recorded for the 2017 Forester. Recalls are issued per VIN range — check the VIN of the car you are looking at, not the model.
