A pneumatic reinforcement system ( 14 ) ("system") for a body structure ( 12 ) of a vehicle ( 10 ) includes an air bladder ( 28 ), an inflator device ( 30 ), a sensor ( 32 ), and one or more mounting members ( 34 a, 34 b, 34 c). The sensor ( 32 ) detects a crash condition and actuates the inflator device ( 30 ) to inflate the air bladder ( 28 ). The air bladder ( 28 ) is attached to the body structure ( 12 ) by mounting members ( 34 a, 34 b, 34 c), with the inflated air bladder ( 28 ) and mounting member ( 34 a, 34 b, 34 c) strengthening the body structure ( 12 ) during a crash condition.
