Continuing “ignition coils failure”, leading to lost acceleration, putting car in dangerous situations, stalling, back firing. Coil failure high, expensive.

Power train:automatic transmission:control module (TCM, PCM) & car stall and engine is shuddering now. Honda will not honor the recall based on a VIN #, my car is doing what it states in the recall. So I guess I'm on the hook for a trans repair / replace.

I have had my honda accord 2009 v6 serviced for constant spark plug fouling and oil consumption. After a total of 10 visits, and over 40 days without my car over the course of 3 years, I had received a total of 3 spark plug sets, two oil consumption tests, lost two catalytic converters, and o2 sensors. Even with this constant spark plug replacement, it did not alleviate any issues. I kept breaking down on the side of the road with a rumbling, misfiring engine. After numerous trips to honda, they refused to acknowledge the problem. After speaking to a district rep and being referred to paragon honda in woodside, ny, they had agreed to replace my engine. They have now had it for two months. After receiving a new engine, I instantly received check engine lights stating the car was running too lean. After returning it for another week, I received it back, but this time, it would literally choke out and stall at every other red light. I returned to honda with a check engine light for too rich and a car that would not make it more then a few miles if stop signs were involved. It has now been there for two weeks, on top of the two months. Plus the 40 days, that's a total of 4 lost months. I had to fight this weekend for a loaner car, which for them, seemed like a very difficult thing to do. Honestly, I don't know how the federal safety agency has allowed honda to keep their oil consuming dangerous cars on the road, I have broke down in the left lane of a 4 lane highway, and I know this should not be happening. I am a meticulous person, who constantly checks his own oil, plugs, filters, etc.... I monitor my o2 sensors for bad fuel trims constantly, and I have never been nothing but disappointed with this hunk of junk. I've filed consumer complaints, honda complaints, to no regard.
