That is a pretty crappy fridge if it is running 65-75% of the time.
I would be replacing it asap.
That's the design criteria for refrigerators. If you don't believe it, put a time clock chart on it. That figure may be on the low side.

Refrigerator Normal Run Time
For refrigerators and freezers to maintain proper temperature, the compressor will run much of the time. Newer refrigerators have compressors that are designed to run 80% to 90% of the time. This makes them more energy efficient because the greatest amount of energy is used when the compressor cycles on as opposed to when the compressor is actually running.
