When checkdisk detects a bad cluster on your hard drive, it automatically flags the cluster as unusable and your file system will no longer put data there.
This is as close as you can get to actually fixing the bad clusters. Bad clusters are caused by physical damage or defects on the disk itself.
When modern hard disks start showing bad clusters, it should be taken as a sign that the hard disk is dying and should be replaced.

How do you fix a hard drive crash?
You cant really fix a "hard drive crash". In the data recovery business that term is used to describe a particular problem when the mechanism inside the hard drive "crashes" or scratches the surface of the platters/disks where the data is stored. There are other types of problems that can be corrected when a hard drive fails but this is not one of them. http://www.interdatarecovery.com/index.php/5-steps-to-recovery
