Thumbs down Spirit Honda in El Monte, CA

So my Fit came with the auto lock feature, when turning on the ignition, all the doors lock. And when I turn off the ignition, the doors unlock. Well the other day, it stopped doing it and all of sudden started making a weird noise from the doors. I automatically knew it was the actuator. My car is a 08 fit and only 6K miles on it. Now, the C temp light is on.

Can someone tell me what that means when the C light is on?

So I took the car in for inspection at Spirit. They held the car for 6 hours, and when we came back, they told us that the car never came with the auto lock and unlock feature...?!?!?!?!?!! Yes it did...it was doing it until just the other day. They also said that they don't know what the heck is making the noise and it's not under warantee.

Now I called Carson Honda. They told me that YES the Fit did come with this feature, and the wierd noise is the actuator and YES it is under factory warantee so bring it in and we'll fix it for you. *thumbs up* to Carson for great knowledge and great customer service...

Perhaps some people have great experience at Spirit Honda. Me in particular didn't so I just wanted to rant off.

The C light is supposed to be on when the motor is warming up. Goes away when the motor is ready to go! I normally just hop in and go anyways, take it easy on the pedal when the light is on and punch it after it's off. Usually warms up pretty quick.

Spirit Honda sucks. I was looking at a used white Fit with around 30,000 miles on it and they wanted $16.5k for it. So I went out and bought an 08 for $17.2k.
