The motor will not start. There is a clicking noise when the ignition is turned. Auto zone said it was probably the starter. I have looked everywhere, and I can't find the starter. Every diagram or video shows older Saturns or hybrids. Could you explain or show me where it is and how to access it?

Thank you for your time,

Mick

Depends if that's a light, barely audible click, or a rather loud single clunk each time you turn the ignition switch to "crank". A light click can be any of a number of unrelated relays turning on or off.

The starter is at the "lower right rear of the engine". You should be able to follow the larger battery positive cable to it. Here's a drawing from Mitchell online service manuals:
