Well, it could be several things, one is the thermostat, also the engine coolant temperature sensor, and you also need to verify that the fan(s) are coming on both when the car gets hot and when you turn the a/c on. The radiator cap may not be hold the pressure like it should.. Make sure your coolant is a 50/50 mix too.
