Donna D'Errico Says Her Car Is 'Totaled' After LA Flooding

Actress Donna D'Errico is safe from the rising flood waters in LA, but it appears her car isn't in good shape.

As The Blast previously reported, the "Baywatch" alum posted a video showing her stranded out in the middle of the floor waters before AAA was able to come and bring her to safety.

Unfortunately, in an update that she gave to fans on Thursday night, it looks like the same can't be said of her car, which she says has been hydro locked and totaled.

On Thursday night, the “Frank and Penelope” actress shared a 20-second clip on Instagram of a mechanic explaining what exactly is wrong with her car, although he never appears on the screen. Instead, Donna focuses on the hood of the car, showing the water that is still rattling around inside the vehicle.

“We did an inspection here on your vehicle,” the man begins. “What we found is it actually hydro-locked your vehicle. That’s when excessive water goes inside the intake and it goes inside the engine and you get water inside, as you can see here, all the water, and [that’s] the reason why it’s stalling and doesn’t start.”

In the caption, Donna wrote, “Well that sucks.” She also included the hashtags #hydrolocked, #totaled, #byebye, #gonegirl, and #hastalavista. Her “Frank and Penelope” costar Charley Koontz commented “Suuuuuch a bummer, but I’m glad you’re safe!” Fans were eager to try to help, offering what little support they could in the comments.

“It might be possible to salvage if u know someone who is mechanically inclined. Pull all the spark plugs and crank the engine over. It’ll shoot all the water out. Mechanically might still be good. Need an oil flush though,” one follower wrote. “Yes but it needs to happen quickly or parts start to rust internally,” another fan pointed out.

“It is totaled? Really? They could always try taking the spark plugs out, turning it over a few times to get the water out, and then try starting it. Sometimes if the engine wasn't running too long after water got in, and nothing got bent, you might be lucky. I've done it before,” another user chimed in.

“Get a second opinion. Your electronics could be wet but it’s pretty hard to get water inside the engine unless submerged. That water wasn’t that deep. Mechanic wants your car is what I see,” another follower shared, but another fan pointed out that it did look like her car was totally submerged in her last video.

On Tuesday morning, the 54-year-old actress took to Instagram to share a video that featured her and her vehicle trapped in the flash flooding around the LA area.

“These rains out here in LA are causing flash flooding in the streets and are no joke,” she wrote in the caption. “Driving home tonight my car shut itself off when I hit what I thought was a puddle but was more like a pond. It just shut off and stayed off and was hasta la vista.”

“That looks like someone wearing waders about to go fly fishing, but no. That’s me trying to flag someone down to help me push my car out,” she explained. “I went to put in it neutral so it could be pushed….oh yeah, can’t change gears unless the engine’s on. Omg.”

“AAA had to come rescue me and got it out of there and to my house. I hope it’s not hydrolocked,” she wrote. “Huge thanks to @rhyan_derrico for coming out and staying with me the whole time, the two guys who stopped to help, and the two women who stopped to help.”

“It was cold and rainy and they had places they needed to get to, but saw I was in trouble and stopped to lend a hand. I wish I’d gotten their names,” she added, advising her followers to “Be safe out there everybody.”

Unfortunately, it looks like her car might not have survived. Fortunately, though, it looks like Donna was able to make it home safe, and that's what matters!
