Reinforce it how?

Probably using stuff that was invented for that purpose, a threadlocking adhesive like Loctite 243.

There is some disassembly required to access the screws. I would not recommend doing it as a preventative measure. Only if it becomes loose.

There is also the chance that the factory itself has been applying a threadlock compound on the last production batches. They surely had a feedback procedure on such problems in the field.
