Worth Keeping

I own a 4x4 2005 Titan that I love, but I have had a few problems. First of all, right around 53k miles one of the spider gears broke causing rear differential failure, and right at 59k I began to get a strange hesitation if I were to slow down quickly then gas again. This was fixed under warranty and I believe the code was 1059 for tranny problems. Turned out to be some valve controlling tranny fluid and some electronic device that works with the tranny/brakes. Anyways the problem has come back yet again and I'm right at 63k so I have no warranty. Should I keep the truck, or have I gotten a lemon and need to get rid of it? Also if it has anything to do with it, before both of these incidents, I have been rear ended above 20 mph by another vehicle and both times my tire pressure gauge strangely came on then something went wrong. Any help appreciated......

Those are strange problems, aside from the rear diff. I'd move up to a newer one if you really have those problems.
Well I definitely have these problems and love the Titan to much to go to a Chevy or Dodge. I'd almost like to find a 2wd Armada. I really have no idea what is going on with my driveline problems, the man I bought it from said he pulled trailers and I don't drive it hard enough to cause damages like these.

Not an expert on this, but I think if you have something major like this repaired under warranty and it keeps reoccuring, you may be able to get it fixed again.

Have you talked to the dealer service rep? I would call/write Nissan and see what they can do for you. Sounds like you got a lemon tranny.
I'm thinkin some kind of lemon something...... Because I drove an 04 with 80,000 miles and its shifts were smoother than mine even though the rest of the truck was ragged.
