Common? Not really. Honda's wiring is very tasty. You might check if mice have been chewing on the engine harness first. Also as a side note, your dealer is a d*ck.
Cylinder misfiring P0303 code.
Hi! I drive a 2022 Honda Insight touring edition and recently I was having a flashing check engine light and shaking (which I later found out to be a misfire on cylinder 3) it would go away if I turned the car off and back on after about 5-15 minutes later. It came back two other times very intermittently and was told by dealer unless they can reproduce it then they can’t fix it and would charge me $200 to scan. Very expensive.
I pulled the code today when it popped up and it showed cylinder 3 and I was wondering if that’s a common issue and if it could just be a coil pack going bad? I have swapped coil pack 2 and 3 and am planning to see if I can pull the code again once it pops up to see if it’s changed but now I got a bunch of lights popping up on the dash for my power steering, adaptive CC, ABS, Lane assist and other electronic features.
I’m at a loss on what else could possibly be wrong unless, once again, it’s just a coil pack.

Your post reminded me of a Shell gas station review I saw when I was hunting for cheap gas in the Summer. The review saved me from filling up at that gas station. Perhaps you've bad gas in the tank from a poorly maintained gas station?
I'm not saying it's intentional but the systems in place to prevent it from happening is highly dependent on the employees. Gas stations use a monitoring system to alert them when it detects water in the tank. Also the filters on the gas pumps need to be change frequently which is another defense against water and debris from entering your tank. If the employees ignore changing the filters and the warning system alerting them to water then you have customers pumping bad gas. It can happen at the name brand stations and not just mom & pop gas stations due to careless employees.

The gas pumps remain closed with red tags warning of the stop sale order from the Department of Agriculture.

Wow! I didn’t think it was this frequent at all! I guess tomorrow I’ll see what the diagnosis is. I’ll post it in this forum as an update so maybe someone facing the same issue can use this.I'm not saying it's intentional but the systems in place to prevent it from happening is highly dependent on the employees.

It happens more frequent than most people expect. The ground tank is protected by a cover and gasket. If the cover isn't latched tight enough or the gasket fails, water from rain will enter. I've seen enough news report about this over the years that I always get a receipt after filling up. You'll need the date & time as proof to file a claim with the gas station's insurance.
Watered down gas is way more common than you think
Faulty gas pumps mean you could be buying watered down gas, gas with sediment in it, or getting less gas than you pay for.
