Default Radiator keeps popping

I did a search and read all the results but all that was suggested I already did. I have gone through 3 radiators in 4 months. I changed the coolant sensor, changed the radiator and bleed it, changed the hoses and they all start to leak at the top about a week later. Any ideas?

It is leaking around the crimp area on top. I was wondering if a sticking thermostat can cause this problem?
