Oil plug on My 2018 X5

I took my car to the dealership for an oil change and was informed that the oil pan plug was stripped. I immediately mentioned that they are the only ones who have serviced my vehicle, and it appears that the technician made an error. The service advisor informed me that BMW cars have an aluminum oil pan, and this problem is quite common and is considered a technical defect with BMW. Has anyone else faced this issue? The cost to replace the pan is almost $5,000.
