RE: Cars are weird
So if it is fine at 30mph, but overheats at 50, the impeller fan has become semi-detached from its axle and at higher RPM it slips enough that it cannot move enough fluid.
Replace water pump. Thermostat should be replaced at the same time.
If it is under warranty still, service will try and bill you full price for the thermosat which is 2 inches from the warranty-covered pump and the mfg service guideline will tell them to replace it as part of the warranty service.
