Medicine cabinet not holding

We have a 2012 28dsbh. The medicine cabinet roof screws stripped out and it drooped down. I had it at the dealer and they fixed it but it is drooping again. They put in some cheap molly anchors and re-screwed the same screws.

Does anyone have any experience with screwing stuff into the interior roof? I am thinking of getting those industrial strength molly anchors that anchor in drywall and then putting a real screw in it. Any thoughts? How much space do I have between the interior roof and the exterior roof?

thicker srews might work or put in an anchor first then the screws

Thanks for the ideas. Last night I used the heavy duty drywall molly and replaced it. We are leaving for CG in a couple hours, we will see how it makes the trip.

I am a little disappointed in the quality of the cabinets in the 28DSBH. The dealer told me they use nails instead of staples - errrr; in fixing the cabinet I found a lot of cheap staples holding cheap laminate together. I fixed it with tiny finish nails - better than factory now.
