Engine overheating and boiling coolant in the reservoir can occur due to several reasons, including low coolant levels, a malfunctioning thermostat, or a failing water pump that disrupts the circulation of coolant. Additionally, a blocked radiator or damaged hoses can prevent proper heat dissipation. If there's a head gasket leak, it can also lead to combustion gases entering the cooling system, causing pressure buildup and overheating. Regular maintenance and checks can help prevent these issues.

Your car does not run hot but it bubbles when you turn it off?

It is normal to boil when you turn the car off. When the coolant stops flowing, the coolant in the hot engine boils and pushes steam out of the engine. The recovery tank collects the excess and allows it to go back in when the engine cools.
