Poor quality parts? Find a different source but use a good anti- freeze and try adding some water pump lube to the radiator.

Buy only a new water pump and change the thermostat. It fixed my problem with my 2000 dodge ram 1500 (went thru two water pumps in less than two years then found out they were rebuilt---paid more for a new one and it fixed my problem.) Been over six years now.
