Well if you short tripped it to death and only occasionally got it out on the road your DPF "Could" be toast. While it was running you should have dumped a bottle of Lucas DPF Deep Clean thru it and it may have helped/saved you, but that is hindsight now.
It's a longshot but it "may" be covered under the federal emissions 8/80 warranty, but don't count on it.
DPF's do have a life expectancy, but this is greatly extended if you road trip it regularly. Diesels love to run... Long and Hot.....The way everything is interlaced in this vehicle, I don't think anyone outside a dealership would touch it. Emissions are touchy.
I bought an extended warranty for my 2018 20D and explicitly asked them if this was covered and it was on the platinum plan. Might have been a waste of money, but this fix right here would have paid for the warranty alone.....
