Depends on what is wrong and how far you're willing to go.. clean off the Mac MagSafe port with electrical contact cleaner and try another OEM Apple charger. If that doesn't work, it's probably the charge port itself.. find a reputable place locally that repairs Macs.. I'm not sure Apple would even work on that but you could take it to Apple Store and see..if you can't fix it and want to stay on that model, find another used one and swap in SSD.. its getting old at this point.. if I were in that position I would probably spend the money and get an M1-M3 series with same or better specs than what you have. 2015 won't be OS security fix supported but for another month or so..

wow this is rare....
just get a new MacBook Pro 13" Retina (Late 2013-Early 2015) MagSafe 2 DC-In Board
and replace that and you should be good to go!

oh an a new charger.
