2018 FC Door Threashold Screws keep coming up

So I have a 2018 30 FC Bunk model the door started sticking a lot and started to realize there were two large screws under some grip tape on the threashold that were popping up, so i stuck a screwdriver through the tape and tightened them both down, door shut great! Problem solved right? nope, about 3 days later they worked themselves up again, and I can't figure out for the life of me why? Debating if I should try some lock-tite on them?

Anyone else seen this issue? I have an appointment at the mothership for other work in September, may have to add this to the list if I cant figure it out.
TIA-

I have to tighten mine from time to time.

Start with loctite. wait and see. get more aggressive from there with regards to bonding agent as needed.
