What is your question?
After body work done, I noticed "engine malfunction" light came on. Body shop employee had driven it approx. 50 miles round-trip with light on (or intermittently flashing) but did not inform me of it - I had to inquire. I told them it wasn't on when I dropped the car off. The insurance company said it's not related to the accident, so won't cover it. After leaving insurance company, the car made a clunking sound, slowed and stalled. They had it towed to the dealer. Code 84-1. Replaced abs and vsa modulator, rocker arm oil switch, & brake fluid at cost of $2,640. After repairs, car has had to be towed back to dealer 2 more times within 4 days due to the same kind of stalling, with panel lights coming on each time. The second time they removed the v-tec solenoid valve & cleaned debris from the filter screen. Yesterday I picked up the car from dealer, drove it 20 miles, and it wouldn't restart after a short stop at the bank. We jump-started it and did a battery check, finding a bad cell. Replaced the battery and managed to drive home (25 miles). Test drove it today and car stalled out again (3rd time) and had to be towed back to dealer! As a side-note, several months ago we had a local "mechanic" install wheel bearings. Could incorrect installation of rear wheel bearings be related to the car's loss of power? Can someone PLEASE help? Thank you!

Take the car back to the original facility with all concerns. They were the last team to touch her and will have to complete it. We do not take in problems like this because once a second set of hands have touched it no one knows who did what. GL
Thank you, but if you mean the Honda Dealer, that's where we've taken it. It's been towed back there three times, but the problem is obviously not fixed.
