When you first start the car up in the morning after fifteen minutes it overheats. I have replaced the water pump and the thermostat and it still does the same.

Good morning.

A bad cooling fan or one not operating will cause overheating.
A clogged radiator will also cause this.

What concerns me is the fact that it has overheated several times. there also could be a damaged head gasket causing the issue.
