    "I've always had an entrepreneurial mindset and a love of cars, so when I saw an opportunity with a brand as recognizable as AAMCO, I knew it was a perfect fit," said Love. "I am thrilled to bring AAMCO to the growing community of San Marcos. My goal is to provide a seamless customer experience to San Diego County residents and visitors alike for many years to come."

    Prior to joining AAMCO, Love spent 36 years in the automotive industry, working in all aspects of the business, including sales, and most recently owned a local car dealership in Southern San Francisco. The former U.S. Marine Corps veteran has lived in the Carlsbad community for more than 30 years and is closely involved in a variety of local charitable organizations.

    For more than 50 years, AAMCO's network of locally owned and independently operated automotive service centers has employed the latest technology. Expert technicians diagnose a repair, fix it right the first time and back it with a nationwide warranty. Known as the world's leading transmission expert, the company has evolved into a total car care brand that provides a variety of services including brake repair, tune-ups, shocks and struts, routine maintenance and more. AAMCO was named to Entrepreneur's 2017 Franchise 500®, ranking at the top of the transmission repair category for the third consecutive year.
