You could try drilling it out? It may depend on how big the screw, as far as how easy to get out? Your local auto store should have an" ease-out" tool. Made for removing broken bolts.

If the screw is big enough, use a left handed drill bit, if the screw tightens to the right. Use reversing electric drill. If you get it out, you can try cleaning the threads with a tap/thread chaser.
