are the internal fans on constantly? you'll know right away if your low on coolant. CHECK the nose that runs into the radiator. it should be SOFT. when the car's on, if it's HARD (difficult to squeeze ...sorry) then you may need to burp the system. in that case, wait till the car is COMPLETELY cooled down, open the radiator cap and turn on your cabin a/c FULL blast!

I would check your climate control and make sure your mode is not blowing at your feet. That might cure your issue. As for why its blowing warm it should only be blowing warm when the heater is on.

if your vents/hvac arent set to recirculate then the air will flow through from the outside, matter what, as it has an unimpeded flow.
all past cars i have owned are like this, which is if you dont have the air on and you pop the roof, you will feel air coming out of the dash vents.

if recirculate is on and you are still getting air through the vents then there is something else wrong.
