Check your coolant level and coolant lines. There might be a leak.

dbox,
Check your coolant levels when the car cools off.

If it is full , my guess is that its either a faulty temp. sensor for the electric fan or the thermostat is stuck in the closed
position causing little to no flow to the rad. Having the A/C on
puts a larger load on the engine = more heat. Best thing to do if the engine begins to get hot is to run the "heater" at 90 degrees on high fan. This helps pull heat off the engine and I will at least get ya to the dealer!
