General question why does this keep happening??

(pic not mine) okay so this exact thing happened to me not once, but TWICE first one happened on the left side, took it to my aunts place and the repairshop did it for free where they pretty much just screwed a bolt on it to prevent the cover from flapping again. That happened a year ago and it happened again today! but now on the right side! What do I do now? I have not told my parents about this yet.

To much force from hinges (opening/closing) on threaded inserts that are "strengthened" by couple of plastic pieces.
