So, the bolt is stripped or the caliper?
Whichever, replace it. Don't drive it anywhere, the brake system is under very high pressure.

If the bolt alone is stripped honda sells them. I believe its a 10mm x 1.5 banjo bolt, they are like $6 each. If the caliper is stripped, they make rethreading kits I believe. You most likely do not have to get a new or rebuilt caliper.
