Default Looking for ideas

I have a 2007 Malibu engine code reads as PO 128( thermostat), PO 463(fuel level sensor) and PO 760 (trans indicator lamp). My question is could one thing cause all three things to go out at the same time? Or is my luck so crappy that three seemingly unrelated things all went out at the same time? I only ask this because this all happened after I let my 20 year old son drive the car.
