If the i30 proved Hyundai could build more than just budget bangers, the Tucson was the mid-size SUV that proved the Korean brand could mix it with the best in the business. Spacious, practical and easy on the eye, and priced from $35,650 to $61,100, the Tucson is available with a choice of petrol or diesel engines and two- or all-wheel drive configurations. Either way, this is an SUV built for the urban jungle, with a heap of storage space and some handy in-car technology scattered right from the (FWD) to the Premium N Line Hybrid (awd). And with the added benefit of Hyundai's extensive warranty and capped-price servicing programs, it's little wonder the Tucson is so frequently spotted at school drop-offs and sporting fields across the country.

Common problems with the 2014 Hyundai Tucson
Whenever you see a bunch of problems all occurring at once, the car’s body computer becomes a prime suspect. This computer is what controls functions such as door locking, power mirrors and windows, the anti-theft measures, cruise-control, lighting, wipers, powered seats, the dashboard and much, much more. All these functions can go haywire or stop working altogether (and all at once) when the body computer says it’s had enough.
Since your car has electrically controlled steering, the body computer will have a say in that as well, which could explain the weird noises. But either way, you shouldn’t drive the vehicle any farther. Any noises or strange symptoms in a car’s steering could mean a sudden loss of control at the worst possible moment.

My 2023 Hyundai Tucson N Line is revving high before changing gears
The engine in a modern car has inbuilt protection where it won't rev beyond what is safe for it. So you needn't worry about that. But a vehicle that wants to hold gears too long can become tiring to drive, as well as using more fuel than it might if its shifted gears at lower engine speeds.
Your car has what are called drive modes which tailor the aggressiveness of the throttle and alter gearshift points to tailor the car's behaviour in different conditions. My suspicion is that your car is set on Sport which is what's making it feel a bit hyperactive. There's a switch on the centre console which will allow you to change the Drive mode to Comfort or Normal. Try that to see if it tames the gearbox's behaviour.
