Try this...Drive for about 15 min. , open hood, and feel the top of the radiator, be careful...may be hot.. but I think it will only be slightly warm. IF that is the case, replace your thermostat, it is stuck open and will not allow the engine to warm up. But, if the radiator is hot to the touch, then you may have a climate control door problem.(lets cold outside air into the car) talk to a mechanic, this is under the dash...Later Mark.
