Nothing to do with the thermostat, everything to do with changing the coolant on the recommended* basis (or sooner).

The "green" coolant is NOT long-life and recommended to be changed more often than the "yellow". But even the 'long-life' requires changing no longer than 5 years.

NOTE: Both these coolant types are mentioned in the Owners Manuals.
