That is not true, amber turn signals are perfectly legal by DOT standards. My wife's car is a MY17 and had amber signals (I swapped them to red at her request) and my coworker just purchased a Mazda MY21 that has that weird stobe like amber turn signal. I mean during a regular commute you can see plenty of late model cars with ambers. Its definitely a choice by the manufacturer, what motivates that choice whether it be practicality, durability, cost or what have you but its surely not an outright law forbidding the color.
