MEXICO CITY (AFP) - Toyota will recall an estimated 30,000 vehicles in Mexico to adjust accelerator pedals on seven models, amid a mass worldwide recall, the company's Mexico sales director said Wednesday.

"We've estimated a possible recall of 30,000 vehicles," Adolfo Hegewisch told a news conference here.

No specific problem had been reported in Mexico and no customer's life was at risk, but the company was acting in coordination with Mexican authorities, Hegewisch said.

The Japanese giant is recalling almost eight million vehicles worldwide due to problems with sticking accelerator pedals, as it scrambles to reassure customers worried about vehicle safety.

Mexican customers would be informed of the recall from February 8, when parts would be delivered here, and vehicles would be chosen according to their production date and batch, a statement said Tuesday.

Those concerned would receive a free installation of a piece of high-precision reinforced steel in the accelerator pedal assembly, it said.

The models to be recalled in Mexico are: Radford, Matrix, Camry, Highlander, Tundra, Sequoia and Corolla, made on dates between 2007 and 2010.

Toyota sold almost 52,000 vehicles in Mexico in 2009, according to company figures.
