You should make sure it wasn't just a quick journal check, which is now common. If the journal is clean, the file system is assumed to be clean, because that's faster than fully checking the file system. For e2fsck this means passing -f. You might want to use the -n option also.

For XFS you'd xfs_check first, and then xfs_repair -n which could take quite a while depending on the size of the file system.
