Description of the problem	My vehicle stalls out, has rough idle, and misfires. It first started to happen only when the engine was cold. Once it warmed up it was fine. It progressively got worse. Dealer advised me to get a complete tune-up and said it would fix the problem. Unfortunately, this was only a temporary fix. It started again when the engine was cold and then at all times. The dealer seemed to be perplexed by the whole thing and advised me again to do a tune-up. Once again, problem was fixed for awhile. This last time it went downhill quickly. When engine was cold and then stalling and dying at anytime no matter what the conditions were. The mil light came on everytime i had this problem. Honda now tells me i have low compression in cylinder #3 and my car misfires. They advised me to have the head sent to their machine shop to inspect it. Nothing was done to correct the failure as of yet. I have found many other complaints. Honda corp. Knows about the head problem. My own research found valves need to be adjusted/inspected regularly because they have a tendency to tighten which leads and/or results in the valve receding into the cylinder/burnt valve. I am very upset due to the fact that honda has known about this and they have never told me anything about the valves. The dealer still never disclosed this known problem while having me paying over $1000. 00 just to start on the repair. In the car manual it states you only need to inspect the valves every 105,000 miles or if you hear a noise. There was absolutely no noise from my valves. They should be checked more like every 25,000-30,000 miles. This is a huge safety issue to have your car die or stall. I asked honda about the valve. Now the same people seem to know a lot. At this moment, american honda corp. Is offering me a goodwill warranty repair of 25% to repair it, but the case is not settled. I have been lied to, deceived, ripped off, and most of all my safety was put into danger willingly. *jb
