Nope. He did rebuke some folks. Mostly the religious elite and self-righteous Pharisees. It certainly wasn't the focus of His ministry, which is what I said. 
Furthermore, what gives you the right to step into His shoes, even if He did? I do seem to remember a particular lecture He gave about beams and splinters.
