MacBook Pro delete key only deleting two spaces at a time.

Hi, My MacBook Pro 13 inch (2019, two thunderbolt ports) is only deleting two spaces at a time when I long-press it. I have restarted but I don't know if it's software or hardware. If it is hardware will apple fix it for free because my warranty has ran out and I know they have that extended keyboard warranty for butterfly keyboards.
