So I put Diagnostics to it, it says there's a misfire in all six cylinders and camshaft code popped up. I'm looking to find the location of the camshaft position sensor on the vehicle listed above Touring model that way I can replace it.

There is a chance the sensor is not the problem FYI. If the timing chain is stretched it will have this code. Here is the location for the sensor so you can swap it out, clear the codes when completed. I would change the oil and filter as well; this helps the camshaft actuators work. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
