The engine light is on in my car. And I got the code p0300. Is this a big problem and what can I do?

You have a random misfire code which are caused by vacuum leaks and bad fuel.

That's only a part of it that can be wrong also below

1. Defective spark plug.
2. Inadequate spark/coil, defective spark plug wire.
3. Lack of compression
4. False air leakage.
5. Faulty fuel injectors.
6. Insufficient fuel pressure.
7. Contaminated fuel.
8. EGR valve that is leaking.
9. Oxygen sensors.
