Key Repeat When Typing

My 2018 MacBook Air is double typing some of the letters when I am typing up notes or something like that. I have cleaned my keyboard and turned off key repeat in the settings. I catch it still repeating letters. Is this a common issue for the flat keyboards?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.4

Keys not working but work when shift is pressed I have a bizarre issue where certain keys on the built-in mac book keyboard won't work when pressed but they do work when I press shift and that key. The affected keys are 1QAZ, the keys that go diagonally down the left side of a keyboard. It seems like a software issue but not sure how to troubleshoot and run any diagnostics

This likely applies to you:

Note the 4-year limit, but since the 2018 MB Air was launched in October of that year, you should be before that. Act soon!
