It's the brake fluid reservoir in the front trunk. The two systems are together for filling, but separated after the reservoir.

If it stuck then later popped back up, it's more likely a mechanical problem with the disc sliding on the drive shaft. Sounds more like a bad release bearing or lack of moly grease on the disc where it slides on the drive shaft than a bubble or lost fluid. If you're losing fluid or have a bubble in the system, I've never heard of it curing itself suddenly. Lost fluid usually requires you manually pulling the pedal up to refill the cylinders to work and the bubble doesn't go away until the system is bled.

Hope you find it and it's an easy one.
