Description of the problem	When driving on the freeway on my way to work the check engine light came on. After exiting i checked for error codes (as i always carry the p-code reader with me). The code stated that cylinder 3 was misfiring. I double checked all spark plugs to make sure the connections were okay. The engine light continued to come on, with a rough idle, and engine codes started to be more spontaneous as it stated random misfires/multiple cylinder misfires. I took my car to honda and was told that i likely need to replace the ignition coil, so i did that and still experienced the same problem. I then took it to a shop where they also suspected bad ignition coils. They then did a valve adjustment and was positive that would fix the problem. After performing that job, the car continued with the same rough idle but only populated the error code stating cylinder 3 is misfiring. They took out the spark plug and ignition coil on cylinder 3 and discovered a cracked intake valve. I've spoken to at least 10 shops, 2 honda service dealerships, and 2 personal mechanic friends that all state that a broken intake valve at 107k is very unusual and likely a result of poor design. I have read about the class action lawsuit for all v6 honda accords between 2008-2012. Unfortunately the 2010 v6 6 mt is one of the few models left out of that law suit. I have already had a shop start on the repairs as i have no choice but to have them done asap. I figure an unlikely event like this is due to poor engine design since i have thoroughly kept up with all scheduled maintenance (spark plugs, timing belt, water pump, oil change, etc..). I feel that honda should be responsible for this 2000$ dollar repair.
