Unhappy 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

If you turn off traction and vdim, does the problem go away?
With a 2006 you would have to look up peddle dance, if you don't already know how. I have no idea if the European diesels even allow it.
