Hello,
This could be a problem with your thermostat being stuck closed. Your thermostat is used to keep your coolant at a certain temperature for your heater to work properly. When your vehicle's coolant reaches a certain temperature usually around 170-195 degrees it will open and let the coolant flow through the radiator where the air running through it cools the coolant and it is then pumped through the engine cooling it. When it gets stuck closed the coolant isn't allowed to flow and your engine gets hot and the coolant boils out the cap.
