My 99 Accord LX had an ignition switch fixed/replaced under recall. But that is another generation of Accords. It was a safety issue: you could start the vehicle in some gears.

For the random shut off I agree. Ignition switch is another possibility. But I cannot imagine how you check that. Probably try to wiggle the key when the car is running and see if it will lose power.

Good luck,

Sam
