Electronic Stability Control problem #1

My car would not pass smog due to the on-board computer not completing the emission system's self-checks. The obdii monitor's (catalyst) was not ready. After driving thousands of miles and it not resetting I had to take it to a mechanic who had to replace both 02 sensors. 3 months later the check engine light is on for the very same 02 sensors.

Electronic Stability Control problem #2

I have taken this vehicle to several mechanics, auto zone found 9 codes, most of them were regarding misfiring in the engine. When on the highway or sitting still the engine studders and sometimes stalls. The valves have been adjusted , the spark plugs and ignition coil packs have been replaced and the car has had a tune up. The engine still stalls out in the middle of the highway. I feel this is an unsafe vehicle, Honda should recall and fix this problem.
