This happened to me recently. I got underneath to hand tighten the bolt and it just kept spinning....bolt ended up being stripped.

I took it into the dealer after some photos were exchanged with my SA. They asked me who did the last oil change and I told them it was them.
They kept the car for a couple days, but eventually drilled new threads into the oil pan and replaced the bolt.
Got a hold of a bolt specialist (their words) to come out and validate the fix - this part took the longest as the guy is very busy and couldn't come out the same day I dropped the car off.

Car's been perfectly fine since.
