The 2 reasons I've experienced for this are:
Not enough coolant in radiator
Thermostat not working correctly (most common), also don't think that the car not overheating means thermostat is ok, on this model there is a bypass built into thermostat, if anything the engine will run below normal temp, BTW a great idea WTG Pontiac !
