There is a tap or valve on the heater or hose that controls the hot water to the heater radiator, make sure this is working and not closed or broken.

You may need to ask AAA to put a radiator pressure tester on the resevoir bottle and pump it up to operating pressure(Pressure cap rating) and see if it over pressurises while it is running at operating temp,rev engine up and down and watch what the testers pressure readings do,it should move up and down in sync with the water pump.If the pressure keeps building i would have to believe that combustion chamber gases are over pressurising your cooling system.Also test the pressure cap is functioning within factory specs.

Not sure about this car. However, most times the thermostat is located on the motor where the main radiator hose connects to the motor. You will have to remove the hose to find out for sure.

To prove the valve that gives water pass towards the heating if this one does not open you have no heating inside the car

Stick your head under the driver side dash and look on the side of the blower motor check to see if the wire to the damper is moving through the small plastic conduit. over time the wires lose their rigidity and instead of moving the damper it will bend. Let me know if these look normal

It sounds like the water pump belt under the timing belt is broken or the pump is not circulating the anti freeze the way it is supposed to.Did you replace the water pump, water pump belt, and timing belt when you replaced the head gasket? If a vehicle is over 100,000 miles it is recommended to replace the water pump while doing the timing belt just because the pump is such a pain to get to under the timing belt.
