Macbook Pro 2018 space bar double spacing

Hi my macbook pro 2018 is double spacing on a single spacebar press super frequently it's a nightmare. I've left this paragraph exactly as I've typed it so you can see how often it happens, there shouldn't be any double spacing here. Since this seems to be a well known issue can I still get warranty coverage? Thanks

Check System Preferences > Keyboard. Your Key Repeat speed setting may be too fast or the Delay Until Repeat may be too short. In my experience Key Repeat should be 1-2 ticks below Fast and Delay Until Repeat should be kept at the middle setting.
