Default 2001 Civic Overheating issues

About 1 month ago my car lost heat and then overheated so I had the thermostat replaced. Two days later it overheated again, I thought it was a faulty part, but it turned out to be the radiator cap. (It failed when hooked up to tester.) That was replaced. Two days later...yep, overheated again. They said radiator had blown a leak. Replaced that. So, now it has been a month and today the car over heated, there was antifreeze everywhere but I realized the fans weren't coming on. Is it possible that they either a. rewired the hoses wrong when replacing radiator, or did the multiple overheating blow out the motor? Any ideas-theories-knowledge would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I had similar issues with my 04 Civic......replaced the thermostat, fan switch, temp sensor, hoses, and radiator. when i took the bumper cover off I noticed the fins on the AC condenser were folded over from years of hwy driving.....replaced that as well and no more issues.
