Entourage star Kevin Dillon was reportedly involved in a multi-vehicle accident at a drive-thru car wash in Los Angeles, California last Monday.
While taking his Tesla to get cleaned, the 58-year-old actor's electric vehicle made an abrupt stop that authorities told TMZ 'caused a rear-end ripple effect' for those behind him.
A source revealed that 'this sparked a fender bender with the three cars behind him.'
Although cars are typically left in neutral while going through the carwash, the outlet alleged that Dillon's was not, after he 'accidentally lifted up from his seat.'
The move apparently 'triggered' his brakes and brought his car 'to an unexpected halt.'

Despite causing 'minimal' damage, an insider revealed that 'at least one person complained of discomfort, so law enforcement was called to take an accident report.'
Dillon is best known for portraying Johnny 'Drama' Chase on HBO's hit series Entourage for eight seasons between 2004 to 2011, alongside Adrian Grenier, (Kevin Connolly, Jerry Ferrara and Jeremy Piven).
The role earned him nominations for three Primetime Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe Award.
The father-of-two, most recently, reprised his role as Johnny Chase in the series' film adaptation, Entourage, in 2015.

I believe language is for clear communication. :)
Water and electricity is a good combination.
It will be totalled from possible battery damage.
I have never listened to Kevin Dillon’s podcast either.
I just remember his very likeable character on the HBO show Entourage. Where he played a has been actor who was known for a fictional TV show known as “Viking Quest”. Where he would thrust his sword in the air and yell “Victory”.
If you want to watch some good podcasts I would recommend:
PDB Podcast(Patrick Bet David) I subscribe to it on YouTube.
Tucker Carlson also on YouTube & Rumble and X
Shawn Ryan on YouTube (Ex navy seal)
Joe Rogan Experience on Spotify
Lex Friedman (MIT computer scientist, his interview a few months ago of a conman was incredible)
All of the above have long format podcasts. Meaning they sit down and talk to the person(s) they are interviewing for well over an hour. Sometimes over two-three hours. They let them talk and do not interrupt.
I just watched the PDB Podcast this weekend with Dr Steven Greer. It was over two hours. I watched it in two sittings.
This type of interview is so much better than anything ever done by the mainstream media. There are no commercials.
Keep in mind that the ratings(views) of some of these podcasts are now much higher than almost everything on broadcast/cable TV except the Super Bowl.
I thought automated car washes were designed to stop all vehicles if one should stop.
Sometimes my BMW stops abruptly...for no reason...when I’m backing up. Nothing...and no-one...anywhere near me. The sensors in the back must malfunction. Sounds like that’s what happened here.
Sorry I meant PBD Podcast with host Patrick Bet David.

Patrick has an interesting life story. He was born in Iran to a Christian family. Moved to the US when he was eight with his parents. He joined the Army at eighteen. Became a 101st Airborne. He started his own financial serves company which made him wealthy in the insurance industry. Then he started this podcast. He lives in south Florida.
We have a newish Outback with the Eyesight feature that must be disabled when going through a carwash, otherwise the car will apply the brakes right in the middle of the machine.
PDB Podcast can be very good. Depending on the current events and what they discuss and dissect.
EV fanbois will just dismiss this setback as an $80,000 fender bender.
Car washers in my city only allowed one car at a time.
What sort of car wash is this? I only go to a car wash that has the car stop inside and the spray and other gizmos clean the car. When done you start the car and drive off.
Cha-ching. In a frickin' car wash.
