Why does Newton's third law work?
Let us assume that the car under the action of the traction force (Ft) rushes into the wall. The wall stands on a smooth surface, the friction force is 0. It turns out that the wall will simply begin to slide and will not harm the car, although it seems like according to Newton's third law, the car should have broken under the action of a force applied to it equal in absolute value and opposite in direction to the traction force Ft.

although it seems like according to Newton's third law, the car should have broken down under the action of a force applied to it equal in absolute value and opposite in direction to the traction force Ft.no.
The wall will start to slide, but why won't the car be harmed?
The slide will begin at a different speed. The speed of the car will change (from = wall sliding speed (inelastic), to moving in the opposite direction (elastic).
Depending on and as a result of how the speed of the car has changed, the parts responsible for this change (bumper, etc.) may be deformed.
