Batteries are Consumable Products and as such have a certain lifespan before they need replacement. Have look at About this Mac and System Report.. Scroll down to Battery and check if the Service Battery is appearing. If yes - arrange for the computer to be services Only by Apple Certified Service Centre. Whatever you do - Do Not go to some corner computer shop claiming they do Apple Repairs. All too often a person does this and pays for a returned Paper-weight.
