Fire officials said they were called to a gated community around midday on Sunday over a vehicle fire and quickly put out the burning 2009 Lincoln Town Car.
Many of the women are in their 90s. They were apparently heading to Sonoma to celebrate a friend's 90th birthday.
Passenger Mary Chapman told KGO-TV she and two other women got out and helped others escape.
She said the other passengers were dependent on walkers and canes"
