P0300 cylinder misfire code appeared when my vehicle wouldn't start and now I need to replace my left side engine head and it's costing me around $2000.00 for parts and labor. My vehicle has a little over 60,000.00 miles and is out of warranty and not covered and I contacted chrysler and they will not do anything about this. They are well aware of this faulty engine and there needs to be a recall or chrysler needs to pay for my repairs.
