I have an 1994 Dodge Colt. Six months ago I had new radiator hoses and a new thermostat put on the car. Now antifreeze is coming out of the radiator cap and spilling on to the radiator. Can you tell me why this is happening or give me some advice?

The possibility exists that there is something pressurzing the cooling system(blown head gasket) and you may need to perform a cooling system pressure test to confirm this. The radiator installation could have come with a warranty, check that possibilty out first.
