You need to use Iterator<Goods>.

Iterator<Goods> it = ay.iterator();

Also, you can use a foreach loop instead of using an Iterator. Functionally, it's the same thing, but it's a lot cleaner semantically.

for (Goods g in ay) {
    // do stuff
}

Lastly, I think

ay=(ArrayList)session.getAttribute("car");

should be

ay = (ArrayList<Goods>)session.getAttribute("car");

this is suspect

 ay=(ArrayList)session.getAttribute("car");

are you sure you have set car as ArrayList in session
