12.2.1 recovery doesn't work

Have had some slowdowns, even App Store takes 40 to 120 seconds to fully populate information. I wanted to reinstall 12.2.1 but when I get to "Examining volumes" in "Options" in recovery mode, it reboots back to normal. Never shows any of the options to choose from in recovery mode.

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 12.2
