Does the 02 sensor have anything to do with the car overheating?

Hello,

No. If you have replaced the thermostat and your vehicle is still overheating the next thing that should be changed out is the water pump. Here is a generic link explaining how to replace a water pump, for reference, down below:

In the diagrams down below I have included the specific instructions for your vehicle on how to replace the water pump. Please go through these guides and get back to us with how everything turns out.

Thanks,
Alex

I changed the water pump about 3 years ago. I don't that's the problem but it could be.

If I may, when the car is over heating do you hear the radiator cooling fans running, is the coolant full? Here is a guide to help us fix the problem:
