If the tank that your radiator cap fits on has a broken neck you should replace it. This is part of the primary cooling system and the pressure is maintained and relieved there, so having a precarious fitting of the cap would and could create issues with losing coolant through the overflow system. You could locate one at the dealer, or order one on line. Good luck!
