Jonathan Ortiz
Co-Owner – Leadership TeamHi!
My name is Jonathan Ortiz. I am a second generation shop owner. My mom and dad started this amazing company 40+ years ago. I have grown up in the shop and have gratefully worked various positions within it including Porter, Service Advisor, and Service Manager. I have also achieved an MBA from Northeastern University and am a Business Coach with Shopfix Academy.
Today, I am dedicated to leading this organization forward on a leadership level while always keeping true to our founding values of integrity, transparency, and respect for others. We want to continue to create an exceptional workplace where our customers receive an extraordinary auto repair experience and where our team members can grow both personally and professionally, while doing what we all love - fixing cars and serving people.

About Foreign Affairs Auto
It all started with a dream over 39 years ago: to build a world-class auto repair shop brand that will always put its customer’s needs before anything else. This commitment carries on way beyond the cars we service every day. Our shop brand is built on the core values of trust, fairness, and transparency.
Foreign Affairs Auto was founded in 1982 by husband and wife, Frank and Gloria Ortiz. Our humble beginnings started in single-bay repair shop deep inside an industrial warehouse district. Frank performed the repairs while Gloria attended to our customers. Over the last three decades, Foreign Affairs Auto has genuinely become one of South Florida’s most respected auto repair shops. We have continued to invest and expand our operations in order to service most European automobile makes such as BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, and Porsche.
Today, our continued focus remains you – our customer. The day-to-day operations are run by Frank & Gloria’s son, Jonathan Ortiz. He is joined by a talented team of managers, technicians, and service staff.
