I would assume you are talking about small self-tappers like say #8 or #10? They can break easily - I've found a couple snapped off in battery tray angle iron.
Another option, if small screws, is to just take a punch and push them out. Then use a larger screw in the same hole. If worried about too many holes, maybe you could get them filled in with a MIG welder?
I tried a few stainless steel screws in the battery and propane trays and they are even more brittle than the standard ones.
