There's not much that can go wrong with a crankarm, and not much that can be repaired either. About the only repairs that are done on crank arms is that damaged pedal threads can be repaired using a technique known as Heli-Coil.

Can a bike pedal be fixed if thread has been stripped?

If it's the pedal that's been damaged there's no fix that's as cheap and simple as replacing the pedal. But usually it's the crankarm that's damaged. The right side crank has a fairly common thread, and can be repaired with a heli-coil insert. The left side has a left-hand thread, and the only ones likely to have the tools to repair that is a bicycle store. If it's a department store bike replacing the crank might be a cheaper option.
