Numerous exist to do that. However, they are dealing with structural errors
and those don't necessarily affect how the files sound. To do what you want
you need to either...
1. rip them without errors in the first place
-OR -
2. listen to each individually and fix the bad ones.
The first option is better and lots faster.
