Without detailed information you're asking people to guess. Could be a bad thermostat, radiator cap, radiator, water pump, non working cooling fan, or engine temp sensor, or worst case scenario, blown head gasket. Take it to a shop, they should be able to diagnose the problem fairly quick and get you a repair quote.

As KenF said, Overheating can be caused by several issues. Low on coolant, leaks (internal or external), clogged radiator, bad thermostat, cooling fans not running, etc.

    I replaced the thermostat and the fans are working fine. The hose that is coming out of the thermostat is cold and the one on top that goes to the engine is hot. What should I do next?
