Fluid Levels

Hey guys, kinda new here. My FiST has 5000 miles and I've always noticed some things but never cared to ask.

First... The brake fluid, I can't seem to find a min or max line on the resivoir.. I feel stupid asking but I guess no question is a stupid one. Where are they?

Secondly, I realized hat the coolant is just a hair above min... I never really owned a 'nice' car and never really cared too much to do research. Should I be putting in the coolant that is already in the resivoir or can I mix different types of fluid? I'm assuming it has OEM coolant. Can I put in an aftermarket brand with he OEM fluid in there or should I flush it?

Thirdly... Where is the blinker fluid located? I don't see any hoses going to my turn signals. Okay, feel like I'm beating a dead horse with that joke. Thanks in advance guys and gals!!

Throw some distilled water in and see if it stays level. Mines in the dealer 2 weeks now getting a new long block for a coolant leak on cyl 3. At 8000 miles.

Oh my god, thanks for letting me know. Covered under warranty?

the min/max indicators are on the brake fluid reservoir, hard to miss actually. I topped off my coolant with dexcool, which meets Ford's specs.
