They had an impact against Great Britain, not the US. Britain is an island(s), not the US. Subs were strangling Britain, not the US. The US wanted to fight Japan, Germany did not attack Pearl Harbor, Japan did. The US bailed out Great Britain because Churchill lobbied FDR heavily before and immediately following the Pearl Harbor attack (Churchill wanted assurance that Britain would receive priority!).

What were uboats made for?

Uboats were made to attack and sink merchant ships carrying supplies to Great Britain. Germany knew if they managed to cut Britain's supplies off then they would be unable to continue the war. They did this by launching torpedos which blew holes in enemy ships under the waterline, causing them to take on water and sink. As the war progressed, more and more were built to combat military ships as well as merchant vessels. Hope this helps.
