Min,

Your thermostat won't work at all if your coolant is low.

Most models of Honda require that the coolant be about half-full in the
reservoir. I expect your (unknown model) Honda is the same. Follow the
directions in your owner's manual and watch to see if things change. If
the reservoir is empty, open the rad cap (cold) and fill to the top
first with 50/50, and then fill the reservoir half-way. Use distilled or
Reverse Osmosis water to dilute the coolant, not tap water.
