I was involved in a wreck today in my 2001 camry going the same speed as the rest. They had minor damage aprox 30mph and my front end smashed up, the abs did not work, i slid into another car witch i was clearly able to avoid had the system worked properly. Could this bad sub frame be the reason my front end recieved that much damage.
