Hi, You should take it back while the warranty is still fully intact as this is a problem and will not resolve itself. Good Luck to you, this should Fixya!

Remove the cap and the circlip underneath and slide it all forward. Pull back plate holding the small ball and remove it. Put drill bit into a vice and pull on the machine. If it still won't come out you might have to tap on the main spindle with a copper hammer to knock the spindle off. Check the spindle for damage before reassembling.
Go to the Dewalt service website at http://servicenet.dewalt.com, put the model number in the parts search box and you'll be able to view or download the parts breakdown and owner's manual. By the manual that model does have three modes; a hammer only, drill only and hammer/drill.
DeWalt says: Number of drilling modes
3 modes. Rotation only, hammering with rotation, or hammering only with rotation stop for light chiselling applications in tiles and plaster and impact stop mode for rotary drilling only in wood and steel.
Maybe yours is doing the second one?
The SDS designation relates more to the type of chuck on the tool for the bits than to the tool/drill itself. There are both chisels and drill bits with SDS-Plus and SDS-Max shanks, SDS-Max being the the larger of the two. As far as the tools go: Demolition hammers will only hammer and can only use pointed chisels, scaling chisels, scrapers, etc, not anything like a drill bit that requires spinning to work. Rotary hammers can hammer and rotate the bits. Rotary hammers have a selector switch with two or three positions; one for hammer only for the above demolition bits, one for rotary hammer for use with carbite tipped drill bits, and some have a position for rotation only. The rotary hammer is a more versitile tool but more expensive because of extra workings inside.
The battery has probably lost it's ability to receive a charge. Is it old? Check the output of charger, should be around 26 volts DC at the output jack.
