The pan with Built in filters ain’t ****.,.... and ignition coils and plugs are the things I’ve had to do to mine.
No timing chain tensioners? That’s amazing for a 2011.

Do you have any serial number information? First I heard the problem was fixed on the 2013 and up models but then someone checked part numbers and found they changed sometime in 2014 model?
This is what is in the parts manual:
