My first question is, are you sure the radiator was bad in the first place? And, how reputable is the shop were you took the car?

water pump and radiator are not related as far as the repair goes, they could have both been leaking but they should have said something after they replaced the radiator. a rad. leak will be up front by the grille, a water pump leak will be behind the left front tire.

It’s possible that if the radiator was leaking, now that it’s been replaced, the cooling system is able to build pressure as it warms, which is normal. The pressure may cause other leaks to show up now.
