There are actually two different 2.4 engines available for that car. I have to assume you do not have the Hybrid. The engine has a fuel rail that should run parallel to the cylinder head. https://www.2carpros.com/images/external/150782766.gif

The fuel rail is removed from the engine and then the injector is removed from the rail.

Thanks Wrenchtech.

Sorry Chalebrown419. Whatever I looked up listed a 2.2L and a 3. something V-6. I rechecked tonight and indeed two 2.4L engines are listed. It is obviously my computer's fault for not knowing what I had intended to look up.
