Generally the things that cause overheating are a bad thermostat, poor circulation caused by a bad water pump, also could be caused by a dirty or clogged radiator. The electric fan that cools the radiator could also not be working correctly allowing it to overheat. If it is the fan, there are several things that could cause this.
