New York City Mayor Eric Adams and New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection (DCWP) Commissioner Vilda Vera Mayuga announced a lawsuit against Way.com, one of the most well-known parking apps, for pointing consumers to unlicensed and illegally operated parking garages and lots.

Kennedy International Airport. DCWP is seeking a court order to prevent Way.com from continuing to aid these companies’ unlawful operations in New York City. Way.com also faces civil penalties for each day that they continue to aid unlicensed parking companies’ illegal operations.
