Default I got bad head

well, just dropped my 2012 Wrangler Unlimited off at the dealership to have the head replaced. My check engine light came on recently, but no code was coming up when i did the "turn the ignition 3 times trick", so i kinda ignored it, as the jeep was driving just fine. Took it to get an oil change earlier today and i asked the guy to check it out, came back as a #2 cylinder misfire. I took it straight to the dealership, told the service guy and he immediately knew what it was. I had been hoping I hadnt gotten one of the bad heads, but i sorta had a feeling considering my was one of the first off the line. The dealership is taking care of it, didnt even give me any guff about the aftermarket suspension. No jeep for the next few days, though.

Pizza is like head. It's worth getting even when it's bad.
