## Discrepancy

FLIGHT 6449 JFK TO ATL ON APPROACH INTO ATL CREW EXTENDED THE GEAR AND GOT A -STEER FAIL- CAUTION MESSAGE ON THE EICAS AND ELECTED TO GO AROUND AND RETRACTED THE GEAR.  ONCE THE GEAR WAS UP THE MESSAGE DISAPPEARED.  ON EXTENSION OF LANDING GEAR MESSAGE RE-APPEARED. CREW LANDED THE AIRCRAFT WITHOUT INCIDENT, CLEARED THE RUNWAY, STOPPED ON THE TAXIWAY AND WERE TOWED TO THE GATE.  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE NOSE WHEEL STEERING MODULE AND NR 2 FEEDBACK SENSOR.
