Default 2007 Honda Accord V6 advice

I am looking at a 2007 Honda Accord with the V6 engine. I did have a 2003 Accord EX with the 2.4 liter v-tec engine. It had a problem burning oil. From what I read that was a common problem with the 4 cylinder engines. The 2007 is a 6 cylinder. My question is does the V-6 have the same oil burning issue are the 4 cylinder? Also, is there anything I should be cautious of on the 2007 Honda Accord? Thanks for you help.

The 2007 Accord V6 were not commonly known for burning oil.

There was a safety recall to install an updated Power Steering Feed Hose due to leak – VIN check is done to determine eligibility. Honda Technical Service Bulletin 13-012.

Keep in mind, 6 cylinder had timing belt that require periodic change, which is different than the 4 cylinder with timing chain.
