Screw pulled out of wall.... best fix??

One of the screws that holds the plastic "thingy" on the bottom of the string for the blinds pulled out of the wall on our new Cougar. When it was back for some other warranty work the dealer was told to fix it. Well all they did was move the piece over and put a new hole next to the old hole and of course it pulled out again! Now I have two holes in the wall!! Is there a solid fix for this?

the only thing I can think of is to put glue on the screw and put it back in the hole.

If you have room there use one of these MOLLY BOLTS

When this is tightened up the back part of the bolt expands out behind the thin trailer wall.

If this doesn't work then the only thing left is to install a thick back board first.

Just a thought. Fill the holes with Liquid Nails and allow time to cure. Re-use one of the holes & tint the other to match trim. Like I said, just a thought.
