Is the DPF in a VW Golf covered under warranty?

Car now in limp mode after the DPF did not regenerate. After doing what was recommended in manual, I took the car on a long drive at high revs. The dealership fixed it once, it lasted a week now same problem has happened, VW garage are now refusing liability. Do I have any comeback on the dealership?

If the car is being used for repeated short runs from cold then the problem is the way the car is being used.
