You've got fsck, you don't have fsck to work on vfat file systems,  
which are under the MS-DOG category.  Try, as root, or using sudo, to  
run this:

apt-get install dosfstools

or, if you use aptitude:

aptitude install dosfstools

And that will add the necessary tools to work with those file systems.
