after the end of production
Eaxtly as Polyglot has already said, but I think this might be a rather more natural way of expressing it.
We tend to talk about car production, going into production, production ending, etc.

Since it is 'for 10 years...', it light be better to say 'from' rather than 'after'.
Back in the 80s, Sony used to guarantee spares availability for 15 years! I doubt that is still the case...
