I had my codes read at Honda dealership. One of the codes was P014, and I was told the secondary 02 needed replaced. I was told that replacing the sensor would stop the car struggling to accelerate, which I had been experiencing. On Friday I had my secondary 02 sensor replaced, check engine light was off. I drove it for about forty miles Friday. Light remained off and car ran smooth. I woke up Saturday morning drove less than a mile check engine light came back on, when I made the next turn after coming to a complete stop the car started jerking on acceleration. This is the same problem I had before having sensor replaced. What should be looked at now?

This does not sound like an oxygen sensor issue. Jerking during acceleration generally means you have a misfire. I would get the car scanned as soon as possible as this will be causing damage to the new sensor that has been installed.
