My daughter bought a used 2002 Pontiac Grand Am GT. It worked great then started overheating. We changed the water pump which was shot and put a new thermostat in it. Worked great for over a month and now it is overheating again. Any suggestions.

Make sure you purge air out of the system and check to make sure the cooling fans work. Obviously make sure it is not leaking or low on coolant.
