They certainly do - the common term is "galling" or "fretting". Once the threads have welded themsves together they will not come apart. There's lots advice online about preventing this./ Small stainless fastenders are OK for light duty on a vehicle (assembled with a lubricant), but anything subjected to loading is, for safety, best joined with steel nuts and bolts of the correct grade.
