The sound is the rubber wiper blade flipping to the other side as it changes direction, and grabbing or squeegee-ing the glass. To change all the variables one at a time, I would first try cleaning the windshield with Windex, then try applying Rain-X, and finally try replacing the rubber wiper blade.

I was thinking maybe there's some residual adhesive if the dealer had a sticker on the windshield, something like that.
 
Good idea to clean it and make sure it's smooth.
