This will get warm. If very hot check and clean coils in front, underneath. Also check fan behind rear panel. It should be turning when the unit is running. Also check for door not closing properly.
SOURCE: Frig will not cool
I had a similar problem. One thing that I need to know is is it cooling at all? If everything is operating, but no cooling occurs, you may have a bad board. This controls all of the components. Getting it replaced could be pretty pricey. Good luck, and please rate.

MAY HAVE PUNCHED HOLE IN EVAPORATOR AND GAS LOW????
SOURCE: My GE Profile bottom freezer and frig's temps are also up..help
has a FF error shown up on your display. If so that is your freezer fan, and if not it still might be the FF motor is running to slow.

Based on your brief description, it sounds as if you have a defrost system malfunction. This is a relatively inexpensive issue parts wise, but it is a very time consuming issue to resolve.
You should be able to observe ice or frost build up on the back inside wall or floor of the freezer section, if so then you have a definite defrost issue.
Other things to consider.
1.There may still be some compressors out there that are inefficient in operation during hot months which could also cause the same symptoms.
2. Door seals that have deteriorated and are worn or torn so they do not seal well. Replacing torn seals will help.
3. Make sure the interior lights turn off when the doors are closed...A 40 watt bulb can cause the same symptoms.
4. Always keep cold controls set atequal or +/- 1 setting away from each other.
5. A faulty fan motor can also cause like symptoms.
