Does Forester do well in rollover?

Sep 01, 2003 5 Replies

Anyone have information and/or pictures of Foresters that have been in rollover accidents? How well do Foresters do in these circumstances?


No. They don't roll over. ;-)

Do a search at the USMB.

I had posted a link(from this NG a few weeks ago I think) to a forester that rolled 720degrees and had NO broken glass! (in a few inches of snow)

Others then had their own stories/pictures.

I have wondered about the center of gravity, given that the engine's mass is so much lower. I'd like to see how many degrees it can tilt before tipping as compared to other like vehicle, like the Honda CR-V.

Dos Abby Wambach do well in a roll-over? (The answer is, yes!)

The Forester is registered as a car, as compared to a truck for almost all other cute-Ute models/manufacturers.

As such, it *has to* abide to much more stringent safety standards.

Check the common insurance and government sites for specific results. You will be impressed.

I tried to have my car "roll over" but it didn't respond. I also tried to "Sit" and "Beg". Still no success. However I'm happy to report that "Stay", it seems to understand....
