This is usually caused by something in your PS1 (prompt) variable.

In order to diagnose that, try setting a very simple prompt, like

PS1='\h:\w\$ '

and see if you still have the same problem.  If the problem goes away,
then your PS1 variable is incorrect.

If your prompt contains terminal escape sequences (colors, boldface,
adding information to the title bar, etc.), every one of those sequences
must be inside \[ \] delimiters.  See:
