Ok bro you got to be less forceful with the screws I did the same thing with my first car. to start off the thread you need to put some force but once it's going in loosen your grip a little when you feel it start to tighten a little, turn maybe once more ? to fix the threaded hole get the screw and put a little super glue on the thread just so it fills maybe three threads then carefully screw it into the threaded hole being careful not to get super glue on the part just in the hole, wait till it dries then you can undo the screw and the super glue has replaced the missing threads, the screw should come out clean.
