Open up the rear hatch. On the inside, behind the housing for the lights, are two black plugs, about the size of a nickel. Pop these out with a screwdriver (they don't unscrew, you use the screwdriver to wedge them out). The light housing will now swing out. There are two black circular bulb holders on the the inside of the light housing. The bottom one contains the flasher; twist it out and you will see the bulb, which simply pulls out. They are available at any car part store for about $4.

After replacing the burned out turn signal bulb, turn on the hazard flasher and then turn off the hazard flasher. This will reset the flashing on the turn signal from super fast to standard flashing.
Sounds like your signal flasher went out. Refer to your owners manual and look in the back glossary for anything with the words signal, flasher, and hazard. It should tell you where and how to replace this item.
