Usually other way round but check system bled properly and no leaks and there's flow at header tank. If all ok put stat and switch in not expensive.

is he noticing any problems with the temp going up and down? Could be a sign on needing a new water pump as the fins may be knackered and its not circulating the coolant round the system when at stand still but when moving there may be enough to circulate some coolant round the system
