"We believe our mum is still out there," she said in a video posted to her Instagram account. "We need your help."
As a reported ransom deadline for the safe return of Guthrie's mother Nancy passed on Monday, officials said they had still not identified a suspect or person of interest.

The family had earlier indicated that they would be willing to pay for her safe return.
The FBI said they are not aware of "any continued communication between the Guthrie family and suspected kidnappers". It is offering a $50,000 (\u00a336,000) reward for any information.

"She was taken, and we don't know where. And we need your help," Guthrie says.
Guthrie requests people everywhere, "even if you're far from Tucson", to report anything suspicious that could lead to clues about her mother.
She continues: "If you see anything, if you hear anything, if there's anything at all that seems strange to you, that you report to law enforcement".
In an update just before Monday's deadline, the Pima County Sheriff's Office said it did not have any new information to release publicly.
The sheriff's statement added that the "investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance remains active and ongoing", and that "the FBI is handling all aspects related to any ransom note(s) or communications involving the Guthrie family".
The FBI also released a statement, saying that FBI agents from around the country "continue to deploy to Tucson".
"We are currently operating a 24-hour command post that includes crisis management experts, analytic support, and investigative teams. But we still need the public's help," the FBI statement added, including the number for the FBI's tip line.
