Toyota is a significant player in China’s passenger vehicle market, with sales rising 21% in 2009 from a year earlier to 709,000 units. The RAV4, along with the Corolla and Camry sedans, helped to drive sales, it said in an earlier statement.

The RAV4 vehicles were made at Toyota’s joint venture with China FAW Group Corp. between March 19, 2009, and Jan. 25, the company said. The Chinese company could not be immediately reached for comment. The recall is effective Feb. 28.

Toyota’s global recall affects eight models, including Corollas and Camrys. However, the auto maker does not expect to recall other models in China for this flaw, Niu said, as the problematic part was only used in RAV4s.

Thursday’s announcement compounds Toyota’s public relations woes in China. It follows a massive recall in August, when Toyota recalled nearly 700,000 cars here because of faulty window-control systems. It has also had to recall in China Camry sedans for a brake problem.

Though Toyota has a respectable share of China’s market, its sales last year lagged those of its rivals.

General Motor Co.’s sales soared 67% to 1.83 million units in 2009. Sales in China’s overall auto market rose 46% to 13.6 million units, according to data from the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers.
