Check your coolant, if it overheated on the highway it's not the fan.

Don't just check the overflow, check the radiator too when the engine is cold.

Sorry lol I forgot to mention that we were at a dead stop on I95 lol coolant was fine I noticed that night the fan was not on. I bought a new one and tested the old one again and it seems to be working. It was not that night when I jumped it to the battery =/
