Default Wipers

Is there any way to adjust the sweep of the wipers? I'm looking at purchasing a 2015 A4 or Allroad. The passenger wiper on both, swings way to far over. It stops right in front of my right eye, and leaves all the water it moved right in my field of view. If it's raining harder, the faster speed of the wiper actually throws the water across the whole viewing area, making it hard see what's ahead, and frankly it's quite unsettling and scary at any reasonable speed. My old 2000 Jetta did the same thing, and I hated it. My current 2006 A4, doesn't have the issue. The passenger wiper stops before it gets into my field of view. I like the 2015's, but that passenger wiper swing is a huge issue to me.

Is there an actual problem or you don't like the normal pattern? Wouldn't you check in with the Audi dealer?

According to the dealer that's just the way Audi set the sweep. I was hoping there was a way to change it. The dealer, and Audi made it sound like it was what it was.
