Could be simple. Spark plug ou spark plug coil. When it happened to me it was a coil.
You need to read the code with a scan tool and post it here.
Try this

or check for a Durametric onwer close to you.
If you need to change a plug/coil you have some info here:

Don't drive your car and don't worry to much. Probably it's simple and inexpensive to repair.
Good luck.
