Had same problem on my 2007. Paid for coolant & tranny fluid flush & change and am pretty sure I didn't actually get either...Nevertheless, I added what ended up being 1/2 jug of coolant and now it's warm when I get in after 5 minutes. Make sure to use the right stuff though...orange...Dex-III I think?
