Narrative:
On July 16, 2022, at 1817 Pacific daylight time, a Socata TB-21 airplane, N718TB, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near San Marcos, California. The pilot and passenger were not injured. Two people on the ground received minor injuries. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight.

cording to the pilot, he had picked up the airplane following an annual inspection and refueled the airplane to about 56 gallons of fuel onboard. He then conducted a pattern only flight limited to one approach and landing due to operational constraints imposed by the local tower. The pilot landed, shutdown, and picked up a passenger for a cross-country flight to Fullerton Municipal Airport (FUL), California, to reposition the airplane. The flight departed and about 30 minutes after takeoff and while cruising at 6,500 mean sea level (msl) the engine lost partial power. The pilot attempted to divert to nearby airport but was forced to land on a road when the flight could not reach the runway. The airplane struck a vehicle on the road, which separated the left wing from the fuselage. Two occupants of the vehicle received minor injuries.

The airplane was retained for further examination.
