This seems to be a problem with aluminum oil pans. I just did it today and found an answer with an oversized self-tapping oil plug. Found one at my auto parts store for $2.99.

The plug unscrews by turning it counter-clockwise. Take the stripped plug to a good auto parts store. There are oversized, self-tapping plugs available, but they will need to match yours up to the correct replacement.
How to Repair stripped oil drain plug on 2003 Cadillac CTS?
Is it just the oil plug that's stripped or is it the oil pan? If it's only the plug, get a new one from the dealer or a local part store (they are quite cheap). If it's your oil pan, then that's a pain. You'll probably have to put in a self tapping oversized plug or replace the oil pan. I would stay away from those cheap rubber oil plug replacement kits that fit in with a plastic screwdriver.

You can suck the oil out of the engine by going down through the dipstick tube and changing the filter or you will have to get the drain plug out and have the oil pan repaired. You can purchase a drain plug that will work where one is stripped out. Go to any auto parts store and explain the situation.
