not sure if my car is overheating
 
i bought an 06 cobalt ls a few months ago. my coolant temperature has never went over 192 degrees. i recently got in an accident where they replaced the radiator and did a few other front end things. the place had my car for 2 weeks gave it back and it was leaking transmission fluid, and overheating. took it back a 3rd time, its still overheating. my temperature will get over 200 degrees, sometimes in excess of 210. the coolant is full. the fan is not coming on.
the company said they brought it to a radiator mechanic and he said the fan is working correctly and it shouldn't come on until 210 degrees.

any ideas?
what are some of your typical coolant temperatures seen?

thanks much.
