is your condensor fan coming on?
Bad Tstat, weak radiator ar ethe likely cause if the fan is coming on.

the fan is turning, but I don't here a noise to indicate that the fan is actually working. On my toyota, when the radiator fan comes on I here the idle raise on the car and can hear the pull from the fan clutch. But on the Q I don't hear anything. the fan is turning, but I thinks that's just because it's automatically supposed to. I can't tell if its working

Go through the entire cooling system.
Pull radiator, flush if necessary. Clean condensor (almost always the culprit) by pressure washing it from the inside-out, flush rest of cooling system, new t-stat, new temp sensor, check hoses and belts, refill with distilled water (70%), coolant (25%) and a bottle of Water Wetter.
