How is the coolant level in the radiator? Don't just check the reservoir. Remove the radiator cap when the engine is cold and see if the coolant level is at the top.

When sitting at the light and it starts to run hot, are the cooling fans behind the radiator running? Does the heater blow hot air when it is running hot?

the coolant is full and the fans behind the radiator works, also AC works well.

When it is running hot is the air blowing out of the fans really hot? If you can get your hands on the radiator hoses while the engine is running, both hoses should be hot. If one hose is cold and the other is hot, you don't have any heat being transferred to the radiator. Also inspect the front of the condenser (which is in front of the radiator) and make sure it isn't clogged up preventing proper airflow.
