The Hondas with VCM technology works itself to death if you mainly drive interstates.
This in turns causes the oil consumption which damages spark plugs and cylinders and is the reason misfires develop.

This is the exact same issue that is occurring in the cars you have extended a warranty to and are fixing. The HONDA tech even told me that the repair is exactly what the other Honda's are getting that are under the extended warranty. Stop trying to hide the issue and get it right.
