Assuming the vehicle stops because the brakes are applied - it would be kinetic energy transferred to heat via friction with the brake pads and brake shoes (mostly). Some would be kinetic energy transformed to heat via friction with the wheels on the road and the turning parts of the axle, transmission, etc.
