Carol Stream, IL,
ok so i was driving before and twice a warning light (yellow) went on....and then turned off 2 sec later.

Its the warning light right under ABS...can anyone tell me what it is. It looked like a half full container with ripples in it. Is it the windshield washer fluid level indicator?
 
On the 2G it means your windshield washer fluid is low not your coolant. If you still have the user's manual check it out. Fill up your washer bottle and it will go away. Sometimes when it is low and you take a turn the sensor will cause a flicker like that

Grab a manual off eBay, they're only ten bucks or so.
thats not what the light looked like :|
 
My mistake, it's become a reflex. Go figure.

It's your windshield washer resevoir, which lives under your spare tire. There is no front resevoir. The filler is in the gutter of the hatch, on the left side. Get some of the Rain-X additive while you're at it, and top it off with a bottle of distilled water from the grocery store.
