2011 is a good year because it wasn't plagued by some of the earlier years' problems (radiator failures, fuel senders, timing chains). All you need to do is follow the manufacturer's service schedule in your owners manual and you'll be fine. If I remember correctly, you'll be scheduled for coolant service and spark plugs at 105,000 miles. The serpentine belt is usually good for around 70,000 miles +/-. Air filter replacement is due at 30,000 mile intervals. Cabin air filters are due at 15,000 mile intervals, but I do mine at 30,000 since I do a lot of highway driving and they really aren't that dirty until then (I used to wait until 45,000 to replace the air filter for the same reasons until I got my aFe CAI system). Nissan keeps changing their oil change intervals; they were 7500 miles for awhile and they went to 5,000 in the last few years. I use synthetic at 7,500 mile intervals, having it tested once by Blackstone Labs, who said I was good for at least 9,500 miles. There is no serviceable fuel filter, so that's not a concern. Rotate your tires as recommended, get an alignment at least once every two years or earlier, as needed. Keep your tires properly inflated and stay on top of the little things as they break and you should...knock on wood...get a long life and a lot of miles out of your vehicle.
