BEIJING -(Dow Jones)- Toyota Motor Corp.’s (TM) quality concerns in the U.S. have spread to China, with a potential accelerator pedal flaw prompting the recall of 75,552 RAV4 sport-utility vehicles sold in the East Asian nation.

The recall will likely tarnish the Japanese auto maker’s image in a country that auto makers have come to rely on for growth, and which last year overtook the U.S. to be the world’s largest car market.

Earlier this week, Toyota halted sales of most of its popular models in the U.S. on safety concerns. It had recalled millions of vehicles in the U.S. last week following growing reports of unintended acceleration.

The recall in China is due to the same accelerator pad problem affecting the U.S. vehicles, China-based spokesman Niu Yu said Thursday. The company has not received any complaints or reports of injuries related to the flaw here, he said.
