Keep getting File System Errors in Ubuntu

For several weeks now I keep getting messages with:

"System program problem detected"

All crash reports contain very similar content:

ProblemType: KernelOops
Failure: oops
OopsText:
 BUG: Bad page map in process ...
...

Call Trace:
  
Package: linux-image-4.15.0-151-generic 4.15.0-151.157
SourcePackage: linux
Tags: kernel-oops
Uname: Linux 4.15.0-151-generic x86_64

One crash report was different with:

ProblemType: KernelOops
Failure: oops
OopsText:
 BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff9d0140f1b000
 ...

A few times now the mouse driver had crashed together with these issues. When this happens I usually restart the system. After the restart the OS fails to start and instead I am greeted with this message:

/dev/sda2 contains a file system with errors, check forced.
Inodes that were part of a corrupted orphan linked list found.

/dev/sda2: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY: RUN fsck MANUALLY.
         (i.e., without -a or -p options)
fsck exited with status code 4

I always do:

fsck -f /dev/sda2

and then restart. After that the OS boots up like usual again. But since this has happened multiple times now I am afraid there might be a deeper issue.

Could this be a hardware issue or is there something wrong with the ubuntu installation?

I am using a Acer Swift SF113-31/ASAHI_AP, BIOS V1.09 12/21/2017 by the way.

If you have to fix the file system regularly, this may be pointing to a storage device that needs replacement. SSDs that are worn out will sometimes display issues like this …

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
