yeah that happened to my car, three bolts got stripped. i took it to a shop and had them replace the bolts. it's a ******* bitch and a half to do the labor. my friend's a mechanic so he did it for like 10 bucks. you have to remove this, that, this, and that.
i don't know what this and that are called, but it's a lot...
