"2) The system monitor tells me my Coolant is low yet when I look at the coolant tank its full. (the clear one) Do I have a leak? Am I looking in the wrong spot?"

that would be the coolent sensor is damaged or bad, no worries, it does no harm really, just check your coolent once in a while

"3) Sometimes the car jerks/stutters when shifting out of first into second."

shifting too early ? give it a tad bit more gas when you shift, and give your car some injector cleaner, that will help overall anyways for engine maintence, oh and check the tranny oil ( thats a painful process somewhat but not really, just time comsuming )
