Could be a few things so i won't bother listing them, but I would at least check the condition and level of the fliud.

Re: Fender Bender
Had a quick shufty, the drivers side is about an inch shorter than the near side Hence the door not shutting properly, can't see any creases in the chassis. And I'm sure the battery never used to be where it is now

Anyway as Ray asked nicely, piccy.....What year and how many miles on it gruff.
BTW might be an idea to just check the ABS module (in pic top right where the brake lines go to) it looks a bit off kilter and that might be enough to have split a break line (doubt it but you never know)
Doesnt look like enough damage to affect the trans shifting though
