Weird Brakeing Problem After Accident

Hello! new to the forum and to Lexus so hoping some of you wiser owners might have some insight into this issue.

Basically a few weeks ago my 2006 Lexus IS220D was crashed (hit & run) into with some force

whilst parked up for the night. The driver struck the n/s wheel so hard that it forced the whole car half way up the pavement.

So far Ive had to replace the wheel, tyre, complete wishbone set up, the steering rack & steering arms. The car now steers and drives again so thats that side of things sorted, however now when I drive the car its like the brakes are coming on and off by themselves, im thinking that it might be the wheel speed sensor inside the wheel hub?

Would really appreciate any feedback from someone whos experienced something like this.

Thanks in advance

Hi Ala and welcome to the LOC, we are a
friendly bunch and some of us even know how to pull them to bits and
put them back together again, with of course the one bolt and washer
left over.


We recommend you spend a couple of mins
looking over the rules of the LOC, we will be asking questions later


I cant help with your present queries
but I'm sure someone will be along ASAP.

Does it pull to any side ? Does it make any noise?

I would start from basics. Check the alignment and anything rubbing. Check the calipers. Check the pads and disc and notice any wear. check all the suspension parts.
