Ford Motor Company will recall 3 million older vehicles due to potential issues with their airbag inflators, costing the automaker an estimated $610 million.

The company confirmed the cost in a filing Thursday with the Securities and Exchange Commission after the closing bell. Ford stock fell into the red during after-hours trading, down about 2%.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration on Tuesday denied a 2017 petition by Ford seeking to avoid recalling the vehicles with the potentially dangerous airbags, which were produced by auto supplier Takata.

The impacted vehicles range from model years 2006 through 2012. They include Ford Ranger (2007-2011), Fusion (2006-2012), Edge (2007-2010), Lincoln MKZ/Zephyr (2006-2012), MKX (2007-2010), and Mercury Milan (2006-2011) vehicles.

The recall will affect approximately 2.7 million vehicles in U.S. and approximately 300,000 in Canada and other locations, the company said.
