Which car in particular?

They are not at all standardized between different the models they have made.

Most likely it is a metric screw.  If you have the diagram sheet of the model in question, it may have the designation.  If not, you can measure the screw you have with digital calipers, and then just order online.  Metric screw designation is M(diameter)x(length).
