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.

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.
