The present aspects include a crash structure of a vehicle that comprises a body member, including an external wall defining a cavity. The body member defines a crush zone configured to receive a first force and to transfer a second lesser force. The crash structure further comprises a heat exchange member within the cavity that includes: a first fluid chamber with a first input port and a first output port and a second fluid chamber in thermal communication with the first fluid chamber and includes a second input port and a second output port. The heat exchange member is configured to receive a first fluid at a first temperature at the first input port and to output the first fluid at a second lower temperature at the first output port. The heat exchange member is additionally configured to receive a second fluid at a third temperature at the second input port and to output the second fluid at a fourth higher temperature at the second output port.
