Which other manufacturers offer an accident management service like Hyundai?

I have a Hyundai that I am considering changing. I like the Hyundai facility of reporting an accident to them who will then deal with my insurers. Which other manufacturers provide this service?

The point of this is supposed to be to ensure that cars are properly repaired to retail standard. But some manufacturers are using claims management services that make their money by putting drivers of crashed cars into expensive credit hire cars for the duration of the repair, so do not sign anything that makes you liable for the cost of that car if the insurers fail to pay.
