It's not a common problem.  I've perhaps seen a dozen that exhibit 
those symptoms.

The fix is to take it to an AASP or send it in to Apple to have the PMU 
(Power Management Unit) replaced.  You can try a PMU reset, but I doubt 
it will do anything.  Refer to this documentation for your specific 
model for PMU reset instructions:
