NOOOOOOOOOOO!
i was on my way back home from work, took a turn at about 25 and the brake calipers didnt feel like they were making full contact. So i hit the brake pedal to the floor and the abs did not go on. My car went horizontal at that moment and then it hit a rock wall, all the damage is in the rear right quarter panel and it is in the shop right now being checked out. The worst thing is that i told Toyota that the brake failed once before, when i first got the car the pedal felt different than what it usually felt like. So now im waiting.
 ......my bad on the vertical thing i meant horizontal, i was frustrated whale writhing this.

By chance do you mean it went horizontal?

Yeah... So OP flipped his car at 25?
Once upon a time a WRX owner's turbo spooled @ 12 mph and caused him to slide through an Expedition and into a house...
