Default Engine light issue

Engine light came on at 200 miles 2016 vehicle contacted ONSTAR who advised the problem was code P300. Took to dealer replaced spark plug wire. Two weeks later engine comes on twice just blinking for about 5-10 seconds each time during one drive. Took back to dealer and they say can't find an issue because shows no light every came on??

multiple misfire code.. check plugs, wires, coils, clean the MAF sensor.. check the plugs for cracked ceramic insulator - that could cause it too..
