MacBook Air 2017 Battery Malifunction

For a few months now, my MacBook Air 2017 battery had weird battery issues. It would die in 5 to 10 minutes. I am not sure why this was happening, and when I searched problem up, nothing similar to my problem showed up. My MacBook Air is 25 months old and has had 530 cycles. The percentage thing has been also acting weird. When the MacBook Air gets to 90%, it dies.
