Where to start…

3.9 l v6, plugs and wires just replaced \<60 days.

engine has 65,xxx miles. every 5 weeks (almost to the day) my CEL throws a misfire in cylinders 1 and 5 code.

Runs like shit, eats gas like crazy.

Why does this keep happening?

any shops around that i can trust that will honor a warranty from the dealer? (easy care total)

thank you in advance.

did you check the spark from that coil? sounds like its prob the issue, prob covered under your warranty. as long as its not the plugs or wires, just stop wasting your time and take it to the dealer.
