Consumer Description

There was a rough idle and tje the check engine light came on, idle smoothed out and the the following week the check engine light started blinking and the van started to miss and then drove rough. Then I took the van to dealer and they said it seemed that I have a cracked head after I received engine code for misfire on cylinder 3... sounds like this is a growing issue for this van and engine type.. Thank You for any help with this situation.
