The same occurrence was experienced [XXX] but no days in between. Therefore, it is still seen as a comput...

2014 Honda pilot Misfire repeatedly happening. Changed spark plugs and coils 3 times continues to happen. I have had the above problem 3 times (check engine light flashing, VTM-4, traction lights all on. Check engine light started flashing, engine was revving weird. This is an ongoing issue that I am having to spend money on over and over. I have found on [XXX] that others have been dealing with the same situation. A recall needs to happen to fix this problem. I have been stuck on the highway with no fix out of the situation. Tired of having to take my car in for the same ongoing issue. Spending time and money that I don't have, P0303, P0305 codes that appear. They get fixed temporarily, then the same issue occurs. When driving long distances it becomes worse. Please HELP!
