120 is 248F, is this the temp running down the road? If so it is running hot, time to look for bags or trash in front of the radiator. Check the fan operation as well. Hope it is something easy.

I agree with the advice to check the front of your radiator. It's very easy for debris to get in there.

thats hot but the fans should kick in at about 225 to bring it down. Is the sensor working properly? Does it start cold and run up to 240? Do the fans kick in?
