Gene Simmons was rushed to hospital after crashing his car into a parked motor on Tuesday (07.10.25).
The KISS rocker, 76, was driving his SUV on Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu when he is said to have lost consciousness.
Simmons is now recovering at home after being discharged, and he is said to have told the US TV station NBC4 he is "doing fine".
His wife, Shannon Tweed, told NBC4 Investigates that Gene passed out and his car "careened across several lanes of traffic" before hitting another vehicle.
She also said doctors recently changed his medication and he needs to drink more water as a result, but he isn't a big H2O drinker.
The Los Angeles Sheriff's Department told the outlet that the Rock and Roll All Nite hitmaker's Lincoln Navigator smashed into a parked car.
A witness is said to have called 911 and police officers and firefighters rushed to the scene.
According to TMZ, nobody was hurt in the accident.
Gene is already said to have returned to work following the terrifying incident.
A rep for the star told PEOPLE: "Gene is fine and back to work already."
Simmons' crash comes just a month before KISS are due to play an "unmasked" show in Las Vegas.
The iconic rock band performed their last stage show at New York's Madison Square Garden in 2023, but KISS are coming out of retirement to appear at the KISS Army Storms Vegas convention, which runs from November 14 until November 16.
Simmons previously insisted the Madison Square Garden concert would be the "final Kiss-in-makeup appearance".
The Forever musician - who co-founded KISS in the early 70s - told Rolling Stone magazine in 2023: "My hand on the Bible. And I should know because my people wrote that book. In fact, my people also wrote the follow-up book, the New Testament. And so I’ll say right here, right now, my hand on the Bible, it will be the final Kiss-in-makeup appearance."
