The Recovery Mode is an emergency mechanism and not a desirable state for the system. Its purpose is to restore the collateralization level of the whole platform to a sustainable range.

So far, the Recovery Mode was triggered only once during the ETH flash crash that occurred May 19th 2021. 189 Troves were liquidated during the triggering of the Recovery Mode for a total of 93.5M of LUSD debt offset and 48 668 ETH earned by Stability Pool depositors. A detailed post-mortem of the event is available on the Liquity's blog.<ref>https://medium.com/liquity/how-liquity-handled-its-first-big-stress-test-160f20d5b18f</ref>
