Citation needed. Afaik they mostly crash from pilot error, not technical problems caused by too little maintenance.

The vast majority of GA crashes are pilot error directly or indirectly (taking off without fuel is "technically" a mechanical issue but really pilot failure).

Equipment failure is pretty low on list.
