I'm trying to fix a 2019 Macbook Pro that has been having a trackpad issue. The trackpad will freeze upon waking/opening the lid and there is no way to fix it other than waiting it out. I booted the Macbook into safe mode and it seems to have fixed it for the most part. There is some jerkiness when scrolling but it's not freezing. Where do I go from here? What could be causing the issue? Thank you.

I would first Verify your software is up to date...
The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.4
Keep your Mac up to date - Apple Support

If no insight or resolve, on an Intel Mac—
Try resetting NVRAM/PRAM Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
(get at least two-three rounds of the chimes when holding the NVRAM Reset)
Try resetting the SMC Reset the SMC of your Mac - Apple Support see the details.

It's not, it's still using macOS Mojave. There's not enough space to update to Ventura. Do you think that would fix the issue? I don't see why it would matter as it was working fine for years on Mojave.
